Well what a cool day out! Some cool planes, but one that made me wet my knickers. Kerry you were right about the Typhoon, its fucking awesome!
It did a loop the loop immediately after take off, also came past at 300 feet, the climbed to 10,000 feet in 16 seconds 
You were right about the afterburners lol, physically made my chest cavity vibrate 
Other memorable planes was the road angel stunt plane, weights sod all with a 535 BHP engine, he could just sit there with nose up kind of hovering in mid air lol.
new zealand air force 757 used for carrying VIP's was pulling of some pretty good manouvers at low altitude, didnt know a 757 could do the stuff they did
The huey in the pic flew over 500 combat missions in Vietnam, it had M60`s hanging on the side with huge ammo belts
Anyway heres some pics

I only live over the hill, and i'm on the flight path for waddo, never known it so quiet really tbh.
I think the vulcan is flying next year or they hope it will be, i'd expect alot to turn out for that.

photobucket reduces the quality so much 
was impressed with the merlin thought that did a really good display . the tornado was maily streight fly passed with a few climbs / rolls but not that many and the typhoon was the best display there
