Default Cold Day Out at Honington

Hi Guys, went up to Honington yesterday with the Bickley gang, when Henry and myself got there, there were quite a few people there, lots of models gracing the pits area. It was a bit fresh for my old bones, so my models stayed in the van So I opted to just take some photos of the young hardy types that braved their frozen fingers for some flying

The photos below just capture some of the action, but it was a great social day out with good company and plenty of banter, and lots of stick for me for being an old tart and not getting models out and having a fly, “I’ll wait for a slightly warmer one thanks guys”

Jets were: Keith Barnes, L39, Dean Jackson, Kingcat, Mark Hinton, A10 & CARF Lightning, Colin Gontier & Simon Miller, CARF Tutor's.

(some of the photos I have had to lighten in Photoshop due to the dark sky and low light conditions)

Na, they'll do

Actually I made a cock-up on photo No. 2, should have been another one of Keith landing but I clicked on the wrong photo[:@] and now I can't seem to edit it, that's why it looks a million miles away[>:]
