That's a stunning shot of the P40, Tori.
Love the 1940's film effect too.

Nice pictures, thanks for sharing. It looks like we'll miss the Air Tattoo at Fairford this year, as we'll be holidaying down in Cornwall, but we'll try to get to the Cosford Airshow and take a few pictures.
 
I know I'm just showing off now, but a few years ago I got to have a look round inside the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight Lancaster, see http://www.torquemonsters.co.uk/lanc.htm. I've also been fortunate in being invited to look around the workshop where Rolls Royce maintain their Spitfires, see http://www.torquemonsters.co.uk/spitfire.htm.

Alan...nowt wrong with my white lenses!! :lol:  It's a slight crop, not much though. Quite a bit of pp though, as it was so hazy!

Thanks Janet. Some nice memories there by the looks of it! I'm no lover of planes I'm afraid (First class only lol) this was just a test of my skill (Or lack of it as it turned out! :lol:)
