This magnificent aircraft was back at Omaka the other day taking a few lucky people on flights around the local area.Was nice to be able to sit on the grass and watch and hear this aircraft flying around our airfield for the entire day and for a change I took plenty of ground based photos which is an area that I will be putting a lot of work into this year.Having loads of air 2 air photos is great but need other images that can be used in stories that show more aircraft detail.Was great to catch up with John and Garth again.A few of the photos show Frank and Liz as they visited a few days earlier.

Nice shots.
I've been watching it fly around for the last few days, it sure does sound fantastic.
