Wigram Red Checkers Practice day

[leow5263]

Went to Wigram today to find that the red checkers were about to do their display, and also a few aircraft arrive fir the Airshow tomorrow (not shown sorry)
Took these pictures while trying to hold my scanner






When i arrived there were circling over head waiting for their display.



"Smoke on, GO!"




verry faint heart.





Gezz, kinda scary watching them form for this..













"powering up"



"smoke on, GO"



"left turn, GO"



"smoke off, Go"



Damn boy racers!






Comments please, and rember this is only the practice! alot more tomorrow!
