No F-16 shots today I'm afraid, the Thunderbirds decided to come in yesterday before the public were allowed to see and no F-16s arrived today... although around 12-15 are expected to arrive over the weekend on top of the Thunderbirds displaying aswell.
Just thought you would appreciate this historic shot taken today and a little bit of a comedy one to go with it.

Turned out the less than a week old exhaust pipe was knocking against a part of its bracket.... and when the car reached 3000 revs in 5th (in the punto when loaded thats 70mph)...it hit the resonance frequency of the pipe!!!!
A bit of bending, padding and filing (at the garage for free) and I was on the road again, 4hrs late!
