Sunday 19 June 2011 - Kemble

"The Cotswold Air Show 2011" was held at Kemble
on 18-19 June 2011 - attendees included -
.

The theme of the show was the Hawker Hunters 60th birthday
with eight aircraft airborne and flying in formation!
.

Four of the Hunters flew a "missing man" formation in honour
of Steve Mills, Kemble's Chief Fire Officer, who was killed in an
accident earlier in the year
.

Two Dutch aircraft attended - Hawker Hunter F6A N-294....
.

.... and two seat Hawker Hunter T8C N-321
.

The Vulcan team emphasized its effect on crowd attendance
but even its presence could not persuade large crowds out in
Saturday's cold, wet and windy weather
.

The big noise on Sunday was provided by two Tornado GR4's
.

This year's display Tucano T1 ZF378 is in a special scheme
.

Two others having been written off over recent years, Sea Fury
VX281 is a new additional to the Royal Navy Historic Flight
.

Brendan O'Brien has fun landing his Cub G-BPCF
on the fast moving runway
.

During the air show lunch break on Sunday Dakota N347DK
(formerly G-AMSV of Air Atlantique and many other airlines)
arrived from Ireland. it is for overhaul before going to the
Indian Air Force Historic Flight
.

Lufthansa Resource Technical Training's (non flying) VFW 614
D-ASDB which is used to train students made a rare appearance
outside of their hangar
.

Apart from the air show, Kemble is known for its stored
and soon to be scrapped aircraft. Most recent arrivals are
six ex RAF Dominies....
.

.... also stored are three ex Farnair Hungary Fokker F27's
- they seem unlikely to find new operators
.

Chevron deal with BAe 146's between leases at Kemble.
These are not usually accessible but G-CFZM in Jagson
Airlines colours was visible at the end of their apron
