It's been a sunny day with light winds and I imagine the crowds there are huge. It's a bit hard sleeping between nightshifts with an airshow outside the bedroom window, so here's a sample from my back yard.

This was how I saw WOI 2012 today, enjoyed the show, and good to see a number of new aircraft participating. The weather this year was perfect, and the change from February to May worked out quite well. There was no traffic driving down from Sydney, and arriving just before 9am I drove straight into the car park.

Yes, excellent photos.
with the Vampire, RRAF-119, I'd say it's Royal Rhodesian Air Force with a distinct roundel (looks like a spear). Never seen that one before. Last time I went there was in 2002 and there wasn't much flying for some reason except for the Roulettes and one of the L-39's.

Was a great show the only thing i could fault was where they parked GSE in front of the public.Could have been parked elsewhere.

You are correct Peter that is Rhodesian colours on the Vampire I think that's Judy Pay's one, I thought it is based at Tyabb but could be mistaken...
Did a Hornet make an appearance or not?
