...and finally, the view from my "bedroom" window before setting off back home again this morning.
I guess it's another fine day down there again today:

The Franklin Sentinel looks lovely. I mean they all do but that does look great.

I see Colossus on the big load did they take it up the hill how did it do ? Would have liked to have seen it did anybody take any videos of it and the other heavy haulage Atlas etc ? im stuck at home with a broken collar bone waiting to have it plated and screwed back together and missing all of the fun very frustrating :(

Went once round the bottom circuit, then straight up the hill - unassisted.
Probably not the fastest ascent on record, but still managed it.

In the flesh she looks a million dollars - one of the best paint jobs I've ever seen.

hi fellas am in the usa at the moment. But just logged in and looked bt the pics of dorset weather looks good there. And i (almost) wish i was there! But temp here is 80+ at the mo. Do miss the smell though!.

I was going to say what happened to some of the pictures with the horrible yellow marks on them and then realised they are flag poles.
I hope they are something for the pikeys to jump off from.

Ejection Seat Reverse Bungee
They'd be fairly easy to clone out of the plain sky if one was so inclined, but it is a fairly distinctive feature of the showground.

Love the big Robey portable ,What a machine !

Difficult to see it all in one day, but here's a link to the flickr set of my view of the event on Thursday, including a short video of the three-engine-ascent!
