Off to Cosford to see the Vulcan fly in it's last season. 90 minutes on the M54 waiting in traffic but well worth the wait. F16 was amazing, spitfires, hurricanes, the Red Arrows, wing walkers on Bi planes a great day out. It is the last flying season for the "Yellow Budgie" Sea King helicopter as well as they are retiring and handing over their air sea rescue operation to a civilian company.
We took chairs to sit on and even remembered a picnic this time, although it's really heavy to carry round. We saw the model of a spitfire made for a James (Top Gear) May tv show, the RAF parachute team, a craft fair, pipe band and of course the museum to walk round. The sky was UK overcast and grey. One day I will visit a show with blue skies for my photos!
