REDS PLAY SILLY B***ERS

Colourful precision flying at the Royal International Air Tattoo 2013 (RIAT 2013) at RAF Fairford.

Violamaths and I try to attend a display day each year (I think that we have now managed 15 years without a break.)

This year saw some spectacular aircraft, spectacular displays, and spectacular noises. Powerful jet engines, on full throttle with reheat burning really make the earth move!

Talking of silly b***ers, these young women performing acrobatics on the wings of aircraft (themselves flying at 150 mph and performing aerobatics) take some beating.

You may see a more complete set of my photographs from the day here.

An exceptionally fine day out!
