Great Show!

[P.Doff]

Just like to say thanks to anyone who was involved in the Salthill Airshow!! It was excellent!! Have to say the Tornado stole the show for me. Those high speed passes were the biz(especially when all the tree huggers protesting on the beach flung themselves on the ground, as if being shot as it passed overhead!! What a laugh!!). I missed a great camera shot of the F-16 going transonic though!!! My camera went u/s just as he passed with the shockwave dancing around the fuselage DOH!! '> .
And "The Reds"; well what can I say!! Breathtaking!! Nearly p'#'ed myself laughin during the commentry when you could hear one of the syncro pair whoooping and yeehahhing in the cockpit as they passed and rolled , What a life eh!
Thanks again, cant wait till next year.

Hi Guys,

I have to agree with P. Doff, it was a brilliant show.  I have almost 1000 pictures (along with some video) taken over the 3 days of the air show weekend, covering some of the arrivals, all the practice displays & of course the displays on air show day itself.

Most of my pictures were taken with a digital camera so it shouldn't be too much trouble getting them online, it's just trying to find the time that's the problem, I'm back to work tomorrow and then I'm off on 2 weeks camp with the RDF from Saturday.  I'll see what I can do between now and the weekend but until then here is a picture of the Reds and two videos of them for you to look at.

I'll be adding the best of the rest of the pictures to the website over the coming days and weeks.

Enjoy,

Frank.   '>
