More from the Ardmore Airshow Today 29/9/2012

There were many iconic aircraft in the skies over Ardmore this afternoon. I guess all the formations would have been unique in the world due to the presence of the Mosquito, in whose honour the airshow was celebrated.

Below are some of the images in the air and on landing approaches.

A Pair of iconic De Havilland shapes - Mosquito and Vampire.

And representing US/British unity were the Mosquito, Spitfire, Mustang and Kittyhawk.

DH 115 Vampire Mk 55 Trainer ZK-RVM.

North American (P) 51D Mustang (P) ZK-TAF.

Curtis P 40N Kittyhawk ZK-CAG.

Supermarine Spitfire Mk IX ZK-WDQ.

And as the finale to the airshow, DH 98 Mosquito FB Mk 26 ZK-MOS approaches for a solid landing.

An excellent day for aircraft afficionados!  I am sure everyone went home mightily impressed.
