    Just a small selection from the three hundred odd I took, these are the best though, I was experimenting with a new lens.

    Great photos, thanks for sharing!

    I was up at a small 1940s show near Coningsby, and got nice displays from all the BBMF aircraft as they went too and from Duxford. The Lancaster gave us 4 LOW passes right over our heads. Was incredible, but I didnt have my camera :(

    Yes, excellent photos. I would love to see Duxford not compared to when I last visited there in the mid 80's.

    Big B-17 pics sent to my e-mail for the use of wallpapers would be much appreciated. ;)

    It's a Sigma 70-300mm lens attached to a Canon EOS 350D.
