It was the best display I've seen the F16 do this year, in fact I really enjoyed Jersey :D

I know they have cut down on the smoke because of the cost, they only have 30 secs of coloured smoke & 5 mins of white, so I have been told. I also wonder if they have cut down on the amount of dye they use too, even allowing for shooting towards the sun, all the coloured smoke was pale especially compared to the French.

I did think the smoke was very pastel coloured, I thought it was just because it was bright or something.

They certainly used more dye at Silverstone when I saw them as the colours were very vibrant. Talk about spoilsports cutting down on coloured smoke and the amount of dye!

There's something about that break shot that really catches the eye, I haven't worked out what it is yet but it is a stunning image that's for sure! :ymapplause:
