Vintage Aviators

No combined drawing today - Brett has decided to concentrate on his painting.

Yesterday the boys travelled to Hood Aerodrome in Masterton to view the Vintage Aviator's 'Joyeux Noel' WWI evening air show. A great collection of aircraft including Fokker Dr.1 & DVIII, Sopworth Camel & Triplane, RAF RE8, SE5a & FE2b, Albatross DVa and Pfalz DIII to name but a few.

We were both busy capturing images as references for future possible drawings - here we see Brett amongst the SE5a:



Overhead there were flying displays and mock battles - the Pfalz comes to an end.



And, because it was Hood, the Corsair and Kittyhawk put on a display of power flying. Here we see Keith Skilling waiting for clearance:
