Naki has already put up a great selection of pics from the show.
I thought I'd add some quick video clips.

Quite cool I thought, they had a short RC model sequence, as part of the airshow!
Same flight box, and some beautiful models.[YOUTUBE]lFx9F0xlDXM&list=UUO1vQGj8WGqdIRbfGPtbE4g&index=4&feature=plcp[/YOUTUBE]
More gyrocopters than I've seen together, I think I want one: [YOUTUBE]wt5kGdOqQkc&list=UUO1vQGj8WGqdIRbfGPtbE4g&index=6&feature=plcp[/YOUTUBE]
The L39 is very smooth, both FSX and FS9 have fine renderings of this particular bird:[YOUTUBE]TuLkgF_2lmU&list=UUO1vQGj8WGqdIRbfGPtbE4g&index=5&feature=plcp[/YOUTUBE]
The MK IX, always a favourite: [YOUTUBE]T00_qhaCe9k&list=UUO1vQGj8WGqdIRbfGPtbE4g&index=2&feature=plcp[/YOUTUBE]
I enjoyed the P-40 routine, looks like they did too: [YOUTUBE]PvILtYZpjH0&list=UUO1vQGj8WGqdIRbfGPtbE4g&index=3&feature=plcp[/YOUTUBE]
And then the real reason I went: to hear the "Blue Tone" of the Hawker Hunter on approach. What a sound! [YOUTUBE]EBYO4e7m-_o&list=UUO1vQGj8WGqdIRbfGPtbE4g&index=8&feature=plcp[/YOUTUBE]

Yes the background sound you hear is the photographer's heavy breathing.
This was caused by an improvised mike wind shield (the day was quite breezy) which ended up pointing up my nose. Sorry.
 
A few More: No music, just sound

The Harvards are flown enthusiastically
by "mostly commercial flyers with airlines
and the likes doing all the practices
and displays in their spare time."[YOUTUBE]1YtM0NtImy8&list=UUO1vQGj8WGqdIRbfGPtbE4g&index=4&feature=plcp[/YOUTUBE]

Corsair, a beautiful beast,
I like the livery even if not authentic
original RNZAF. Excellent FS9 repaint
for it too.[YOUTUBE]STfBYUrplk8&list=UUO1vQGj8WGqdIRbfGPtbE4g&index=3&feature=plcp[/YOUTUBE]

Yak 52, very popular in NZ
for sport flying: [YOUTUBE]if6dpaz6Kaw&list=UUO1vQGj8WGqdIRbfGPtbE4g&index=2&feature=plcp[/YOUTUBE]

Mustang, probably doesn't need too much
introduction... another flightsim favourite [YOUTUBE]dTQdFjhBw2g&list=UUO1vQGj8WGqdIRbfGPtbE4g&index=1&feature=plcp[/YOUTUBE]​
