Yeah, sadly I missed the Vulcan, it only flew on the Saturday.

Especially the Vulcan. And the Swordfish, Spitfire, etc., etc.

Never seen the Vulcan, but I have seen a B-1. In fact, it flew right over my house. :panic:

But I didn't get a photo of it. :doh:

I will trawl through my photos over the next day or so to see what's worth posting.

Outside the ordered universe is that amorphous blight of nethermost confusion which blasphemes and bubbles at the center of all infinity—the boundless daemon sultan Azathoth, whose name no lips dare speak aloud, and who gnaws hungrily in inconceivable, unlighted chambers beyond time and space amidst the muffled, maddening beating of vile drums and the thin monotonous whine of accursed flutes.

Not mine, but someone who lives near me has a nice little set on Flickr.

What I've found with a few discussions I've had lately is this self-satisfaction that people express with their proffessed open mindedness. In realty it ammounts to wilful ignorance and intellectual cowardice as they are choosing to not form any sort of opinion on a particular topic. Basically "I don't know and I'm not going to look at any evidence because I'm quite happy on this fence."

I have a good few Red Arrows pics myself, but not too many of great quality. Anyway, I'll sift the wheat from the chaff ASAP.

I love going to air shows and checking out all the planes and jets! Going to Air Venture 2011 Oshkosh this weekend. Old war birds are the highlight there, and the Harrier, very cool, and loud! The Chicago Air and Water show is coming up soon too! Thunderbirds, F-16s, the B-1B Lancer! My kids absolutely love it too!
Oh, and I have awesome pics from previous shows...gotta dig 'em up!
We danced.
