On Jan 1st, 1945 the 352nd Bluenosers flew one of their most celebrated missions. The air battle they took part in on this day 75 years ago, became known as 'The Legend of Y-29'. #bluenosedbastardsofbodney#bodenplatte

. @kermitweeks founder of Fantasy of Flight in Florida had his truly exceptional D model painted up as Lt George Preddy's 'Cripes A Mighty'. Preddy was the highest scoring Mustang ace of the conflict. Lee Lauderback steers a course through a stunning Florida sky. #bluenosers

Remembering the days when I was with my friends at the 2017 @Flying_Legends Airshow. Hoping to show my face again at some air shows in 2021.

Personally as an air to air photographer, shooting #historicaircraft is like getting to play in the top league of your favoured sport. @MissHelenP51 is, without doubt, a jewel in the historic aviation crown
P51, Miss Helen, arriving back at her @IWMDuxford base having completed a fly out with @HurricaneR4118 yesterday. The eagle-eyed amongst you will notice that the Hurricane beat her back (admittedly Miss Helen did a nice practice display on arrival and I just landed 😉)
