Blue Eagles Team News for 2007

The Kemble Air Show – 17 June 2007

Captain Laura Jones reports:

The show at Kemble went very well – I think it was our best display yet! A very good reaction from the crowd and long queues for the signed posters after the display! We flew up from Middle Wallop in the morning and displayed at 1330 hrs, opening the afternoon show as they had an hour break for lunch where we were treated to a display of model aircraft!

The Lynx and Solo Gazelle then had to depart quickly to go to Brooklands for Solo displays later that afternoon.

The best of the action at Kemble is captured below, all pictures by the Team:

Three shots….	….looking across the formation….

….from Mal Malcolm’s Gazelle.	A close up of the Team in flight en-route to Kemble.

The Team moved into echelon….	….for these two shots.

All professional pilot…..	….until the fear shows!

Coming into Kemble in line-astern.	At Kemble, the stand was already set up and working.

The Team technicians try low tech for a change….	….not as straightforward as a Lynx control system!

A sneak raid on a rival display stand….	….garnered an advertising coup!

Team autographs were much sought after, as ever!	The solo Gazelle transit from the cockpit.

The view from the Gazelle is unrivalled.	The solo Gazelle from the Lynx.
