Middle Wallop 70th Anniversary

What a day!. Left home at about 5.15am and got to Wallop at 7am. It was a bare airfield, but the team got on and did 3000m of fence, marquees up, catering in place and the loos arrived. The car park quickly filled, asnd the aircraft started to arrive through the murk.

By mid-morning all 25 aircraft were in place and the line up was stunning, including Austers, 3 Stearman, 4 varieties of Percival and a leopard moth that was stationed at Middle Wallop all those years ago.

The BBMF Hurrican had to scrub, but the Spitfire came in and did an amazing flypast dispaly. Then is was all ready to go. Aircraft left almost as rapidly as they arrived.

The Army historic flight did a quick twirl and then it was time to put it all away.

I hope you enjoyed it as much as we did.
