Great photos cool.gif , One thing Adrian Petford on his NZ visit from the UK said he just can't get enough of the Vampires .. think the Venom tho with those tip tanks and more slight sweep on the wing really sup's it up cool.gif

Wow glass cockpit...
The nose takes a bit of getting used to. Swiss?
What altitude the last shot, what camera ship?

I was admiring Gavin's photos earlier on his Facebook page! Absolutely stunning... wub.gif wub.gif wub.gif wub.gif wub.gif wub.gif wub.gif

Love anything DH and the Venom as much as the Vampire - that design was really something.

Thanks for posting... and Gavin, thanks also for your NZ Warbirds 2013 calendar. I picked up a copy on my last trip over just before I left and can now spend the whole year admiring your outstanding photography. clapping.gif clapping.gif clapping.gif

I spend eleven months of the year in the UK and one in NZ. I'm hoping to improve that... ;-)

Outstanding is the word for these photos, perfect lighting conditions and they are all so good to look at. Lots of interest there, and the cockpit shot is a nice bonus too.

Something about these 'classic' designs, they just look so right.

More photos please !!

smooth landings.
