Parked up for night on way home at nice we place near Haddington I’ve just found out that the air shows on at east fortune tomorrow so gonna pop along for the day not usually my thing but since I’m hear may as well go have a gander. Anybody been or anybody going Scotland's National Airshow
 
Should be great if the weather allows. If it is wet it's definitely worth a look round the concorde, and some other interesting exhibits around the museum.
 
Realy enjoyed the air show today first time I’ve been to one of these events never seen the red arrows before they were amazing and all the other acrobatic displays from old migs to World War Two fighters. Had a tour of concord couldent believe how small it is inside even stood next to a Vulcan bomber that saw action in the Falklands. Very impressed would recommend the air museum at East Fortune worth a visit if you’re in the area.
 
I took this at East Fortune in 2004. The wings were yet to be reattached after it had been floated on a barge down the Thames and up the East coast before being pulled across fields.

These show it on display in 2005

Hi Bill actually seen it in use at Kennedy airport. But would love to have flown on her. Amazingly it still looks like somthing from the future. And couldent believe how small the windows are
 
We went on it to New York, amazing to arrive before you set off. I remember those little windows got quite warm.
