Some great pictures!!

The Typhoon formation is great

Not as cool as mine. All taken from our bedroom window at the house in Bristol during an Airbus display day:



oooooo, "What is that plane doing aerobatics?" I hear you asking........nothing too big.....













Yep, an Airbus A380 - was amazing to watch!!

And some just for Iain:

I live not far from Southampton (Eastleigh) Airport. BBMF flights often fly over during the summer months en-route to air-shows locally. Spitfire, 3-4 times a year, Lancaster at least twice. The first flight of the prototype spit flew from here in March 1936 (K5054)

My house is under the flight path for every military air display in London (trouping the colour, queens birthday etc.) so I get to see them all fly overhead lined up ready, then head into the house and watch them again on Tele

Vulcan is at the FOS every year. Very cool...

Clever gentleman's sausage, wanna swap houses!!

Awesome pictures, loving the Typoon pics turning hard with the afterburners on!

Very jealous wurlycorner, I'm a fighter jet addict, always at the airshows!

There was an amazing display by the A380 at Farnborough air show last year. Never seen such a big plane doing the kind of manoeuvres it was, ridiculous angles of lean and slow speed passes like the small jets do.

Here's a clip from the show:
