Valley Veiw Airshow

[Brett]

G'day everyone, Just a few pics from yesterday. It was a good day up in Geraldton for the airshow. The wind turned up a bit in the arvo which hampered the display of the model aircraft a bit but apart from that, it was a brilliant display. There was quite a good turn up of local pilots and visitors for the annual event. The formation flying was awesome with the Texan and the Victa Air tourer. A good solid display from the Decathlon was nice too. The RAAF display on the pc-9 was a sight to see. I have never seen them do those max rate turns b4 and was just blown away by the performance even though I had seen the roulettes a number of times. There were joy flights on the Beech 18 and Jetranger which were pretty much constant during the afternoon. I wish I had taken a few more photos but watching the displays, I just kept forgetting to pull the camera out. I flew the Aeropup out allowing time to get home before last light and missed the 23 piece Royal Australian Navy Band - WA Detachment concert but from what I hear it was fantastic. I did get some nice video so will have to try and edit it a bit and post on you tube.

Looks like it was a good day! I was there last year flying my big model but couldn't make it this year. I was planning on flying there but could find a plane to borrow in time. Bugger, next year it is for me then. Few more hours under my belt by then.
