War Birds Over Wanaka 2010

[Big D]

A great show and a great weekend.

It was good to catch up with some of the folks from the north island and also aussie (good to meet you Tony).

I thought that it was a great vehicle and militaria display and as one of the club visitors from the north island said, a fantastic variety of vehicles, the best he has seen.

The aircraft displays were great. I reckon the aussies in the F18's stole the show in the aircraft display but at the same time it was quite something to see a Zero flying in NZ skies. As always, the Corsair and Spitfire were fantastic to watch.

The weather was pretty good for the show itself. It poured down on the Saturday night and a few of us got wet onsite in our bell tents. Sunday night/Monday morning was freezing cold but the snow on the distant mountains the next morning did look nice though.

Roll on 2012!

Cheers
