    crucislancer, the 6th pic is indeed a Hawker Hunter.
    The Vulcan was great to see. They got it flying again last year I believe, but sometimes bad weather kept it from performing.



    What?....no IL-2?

    Thanks for sharing Heliopause, as another who saw it fly as a kid, seeing the vulcan again in that steep climb out brings it all back, except for the thunderous noise.

    Went to the airshow too, spent 3,5 hours in an epic traffic jam. High point of the show for me was seeing the Vulcan fly What a wonderfull machine!
