Farnborough Airshow, UK

We went to the Farnborough airshow a couple of months ago. We watched 4 1/2 hours of amazing aircraft displays, including the world famous Red Arrows, an reenactment of a WWI air battle, and the new air bus - whose maneuverability was being showed off and it looked like a giant elegant winged beast, it was amazing that it even got in the air!

Luckily we went with Rob and Rebecca so Richard had someone to enjoy all the plane displays with!


Red Arrows - during their formations they are only 2 metres apart!

The Red Baron going down!


New Airbus A380



This aircraft was really cool - it has rotors that can rotate mid flight, so from helicopter to plane, back to helicopter - it's designed for rescue and aid missions
