forthcoming attraction.....


Yes, it's almost THAT time of the year again, when your intrepid bloggers arm themselves with cameras, spare batteries and memory cards, the video cam, and lots of suntan lotion, and spend a day of mindboggling fun, watching the aerial displays at the Port Elizabeth Airshow. It is taking place at the beachfront this year, on Saturday 25th October. As we get details, we'll let you know more, but this is just to whet your appetite.This is a formation turn by the Silver Falcons, taken at the 2006 Air Show.

  2. Oh wow, what fun! I've never seen an aerial show so I'll have to live vicariously through the pics that you'll post. Hope you have a great time!

  3. This is truly a fantastic shot: caught both the formation and vapor trails against a beautiful blue sky. Marvelous!

  5. What sucks about this years airshow is that a lot of who-ha was made about the fact that it will be a free airshow over the beachfront and now at a late stage it has been moved to the airport with a R40 entrance to get close. Yes I know that you will still be able to see the planes from the side of the road, but still. I know its for a good cause, but 40 bucks a pop for a family of four is a bit too much for me.
