The F-22 is flying with the F-35A and a P-51D in a 'US Air Force Heritage Flight'
The F-35B is doing a fly past with the Red Arrows and 2 Typhoon FGR4's according to the programme.
They will all be flying on all three days. Personally I thought the F22 was 'thrown around' a lot more than the F35, and on a par with the Typhoon display's

At these events you invariably end up chatting to a large variety of people. During one such conversation the chap I was talking to regaled a story about an Airfix branded F-35, or about how he managed to put an Airfix sticker onto a full size mock up of one. Anyway he has sent me the evidence and given me permission to post them. So, for your entertainment, I present the Airfix 1/1 F-35

When we take on a hobby or interest, we can plod along doing the same things, and then suddenly your hobby takes a seismic shift forwards. I have experienced this in model making, when I discovered Micro sol and set, and then airbrushing. My models suddenly got remarkably better in my opinion, after learning these things. Well, the same thing applies to my photo's. The last seismic shift was after my first wedding in October. My photo's suddenly looked good. Well today I experienced another shift. Sorry to boast or brag, but the photo here is stunning, and I took it!

Nothing to apologise for Mark, that is an exceptional picture that needs a wider audience. Go for it!
