RAF Wyton Familes Day Airshow

Went to the Airshow last Friday, which was if I'm an honest a bit of a washout, on two accounts. The weather was very mixed, and varied from being quite hot to being a heavy thunderstorm with torrential rain, thunder and lightning. Secondly the flying programme was rubbish with little fast jet activity and the Typhoon, Vulcan and Lancaster all being 'no shows'. Got a couple of 'okay' photos of the Spitfire during its display piece and an Apache that dropped it. The Spitfire was the version fitted with the Griffin engine. It just doesn't sound as good I'm afraid as the normal Merlin, that said a beautiful plane all the same.
