2nd last one is best.

Why do I fear the answer will involve health and safety and visibility or something stupid like that...

Great shots!. I was there until about 13:00, didn't look like the weather was going to lift. Looks like it may have done?

What was it like yesterday? We were going to have gone down but the weather put us off. The cloud base in Perth couldn't have been more that 1000feet.

Hi Paul, I think this picture sums the morning up

At least the Euro fighter put on a very low level display

Honest opinion, it was pants, mostly all due to the weather, oh and my pictures were pants - but that it my fault, not really all the weathers!

Hangovers don't help when in crowded situations either...

I agree. The weather was terrible. Speaking to Red one later,( Red Arrows ) he did say that it was very border line they went up. I think everone was a little :( . ImageI only got five mins to go for a jimmy riddle all day, and could not speak all day Sunday, due to so many questions about the Harrier Cockpit. However there were lots of happy kids, once they got their photo taken in the cockpit.
