Warbirds D-Day Ardmore 2012



Ardmore always has a few planes of interest.



I saw Doug Brooker taxi his Spitfire out but it didn't fly. He also enjoys his MX2 aeorobatic palne.



Tiger Moth - up ... and .. over.



This Trojan has been caught making prop-tip trails on takeoff.



A few jets on display, the blue one is an Albatross (East Europe trainer) with a Strikemaster.



6 Harvards did their usual formation flying.



This particular Kittyhawk recovery and rebuild is in the book 'The Whole Nine Yards' which is the length of a full clip of bullets.



The Miles Messenger was used for spotting ahead of the main mock attack.
