Bruntingthorpe today

A little more info on what the Cold war jets open days about, like i said, its not really an airshow although there's a small flying elemant, Bruntingthorpe is the home of an impressive collection of privatly owned ground running 50s-60's era jets run by enthusiasts, the collection includes 3 Buccaneers, 3 jet provosts, a Hunter, Victor Canberra, Nimrod, Comet and EE Lightning, all of which make fast taxi runs down Bruntingthorpe's long runway, which was both a RAF and USAF airfield during the 50's.
I think 2 shows are held everyear and is a very enjoyable event.
cheers ian
