I've been fortunate enough to see one of the "Legend Air Shows" at Duxford when visiting Great Britain. Except for the "Last Roundup" last September at Columbus, OH (I was a crew chief of a P-51H #46314, still flying out of Hayward, CA. so I'm a sucker for 51's) it was the best airshow I've seen. The pull the aircraft out of the RAF Museum at Duxford and fly them. You will see everything from WW1 thru WWII piston engine aircraft. No jets. The show I saw had the Spitfires, Hurricanes, a Sea Fury, Lancaster, 8 Tiger Moths doing formation aerobatics, a couple of Swordfish (with torpedoes), 4 Mustangs, a Tigercat, a Bearcat, a B-17, 2 B-25's and more. If you ever visit England, make sure you leave time to get to Duxford, Fred

If the mass formation fly-by doesn't give you goosebumps, well you must be a jet guy! http://www.airshowbuzz.com/videos/view.php?v=6fdfd0a0 A very cool video boys, makes your heart pound proud!
