I was at Farnborough for the airshow so I thought I'd share a few of my pictures. The poor light due to cloud cover has ruined a few of the photos of the lancaster & spitfire display If I find something worth posting from that I'll add it later.

The A380 was there again







And it was being chucked around again I still can't believe that such a large & heavy plane can handle like that.





then it was the Eurofighters turn I like this alot!









Then the red arrows arrived.





I can't remember what these were called but they put on a really good display.



Then the Vulcan took to the skies This thing is huge and the noise it makes is amazing.







I really liked this old plane and it was also thrown around alot.





I think this was the Catalina



And finally the red arrows display.









Sorry if I got any of the names wrong, I'm not really into planes and I don't have access to the program at the moment.

Paul, you have taken some nice photos with some taken from a brilliant vantage point...well done.

The 'old plane' with four props, is a DC6. Yes the flying boat is a Catalina. I don't know what the small aerobatic planes are, and neither does my dad who saw them at Fairford.

Thanks Darren I thought it was the catalina but I couldn't remember the other one.

The grandstand was the place to be but it was so cold and windy there that we had to come down onto the ground

The small areobatic team are called the blades. They're all ex red arrow pilots
