Over two hours condensed into almost three minutes, showing the process of us packing up the display. Total time for us to pack up, drive home and then unpack everything is about six hours, which is why we only do a handful of shows a year. We all love putting on this amazing display, and want everyone to appreciate the time and effort it takes us to put this all together for your enjoyment π
We all had a fantastic time again this year at the The Helicopter Museum (Official), photos from the weekend will be uploaded in the coming days π
Happy birthday to Cam, the most gun nutter of us all! π

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. We will remember them.
A couple of our crew got the opportunity today to go to Orchid Care Home and take a few pieces from the collection to talk to the residents about, we had a fantastic time and can't wait to go back again in the future π
A day well spent at Military Oddessey π
Thank you to everyone that came to see us at our first 30.cal display as an Airborne unit at the Fairford steam, classic & retro show this weekend, it all worked out really well, so we'll definitely be doing some shows like this again next year π
