We had a terrific day out at East Kirkby yesterday - Jane's Guzzi rolled over 85,000 miles and I had a great ride there and back on the S1.

And all in beautiful weather :sun:................

There was a good selection of four-wheeled machinery on show and the aircraft displays were as good as ever. The B25 Mitchell bomber, which had flown over from the Netherlands for its first ever display at East Kirkby, put on a breathtaking show. The Dutch pilot was throwing it around like a fighter :worthy: and for its finale it flew very low (and I mean low :o) over the airfield.
