Honestly mate, it's not worth it. Wind, rain, cr@p lens, cr@p photographer :))

If I can find one that isn't blurred but don't hold ya breath.

Hurry up, I'm going purple. :))

I didn't even take my camera - I've spent so much time looking the lens at her in the past I decided just to watch her.

Nice to see MaPS.

Paying the price for going now tho' - but well worth it there was nice little howl on the final flypast.

Don't say I didn't warn you (I am actually quite ashamed to post these) :))

Nowt wrong with the pics, Jiggy, in view of the cr@p weather.

There were hundreds of cameras at NAM, and I doubt whether anyone got a decent pic. Unlit grey aircraft against dark grey cloud.

Thanks Sooty. I'm sure there are far better but I was just glad to be there in time to see her go to be honest and the T&G was a bonus

We really wanted to go to NAM but this weekend is impossible. Hope you all had a good day

Edited cos I can't type day

Jiggy, which end of the lane were you parked in ?? Did you not wait for her return ?
Must have passed you at some point ! And no, I didnt take any photos !

by **Mayfly** » Sat Apr 28, 2012 9:50 pm

It's not about quality Jigs it's about sharing so thanks for posting them.

We were on the A614, drove up to the last crash gate, turned around and parked at the 1st gap in the trees. We didn't have time to hang about (lucky we made it before she left as it was :))

)

by **Kermit** » Sun Apr 29, 2012 10:39 am

Yes, can see it now from the angle of your photos, glad you made it, certainly worthwhile !
No doubt we ll meet on that lane some time this year

by **Jigsaw** » Sun Apr 29, 2012 1:56 pm

I'm sure we will be loitering there again at some point Kermit

.
Really glad we made it in time to see her take off :ymapplause:

by **Sploosher** » Sun Apr 29, 2012 4:13 pm

I shall try and get there as well sometime............

by **Dee** » Sun Apr 29, 2012 4:28 pm

I shall try and get there and stay long enough to see her take off!!

Was good to meet up with people over at Newark. Whilst 'Brunty' cold, it was a nice little display for the masses outside - although whoever was doing the practice over Swinderby direction was giving it 'beans' and didn't reproduce it over the showground.

At some point, when my PC decides to play ball ~x(

, I'll get the video uploaded.

It was nice you and CG Garry.

I agree about the flypast, it was a little off to one side too.
