My first airshow of the year and as far as I'm concerned, the start of my photographic season. The Herne Bay display is a compact affair, but is notable for the continuity of the programme. As one presentation finishes the next is waiting in the wings to move in; something that my local airshow would do well to take note of.
There are the usual suspects displaying, of course; the RAF Red Arrows being the biggest crowd puller, but also one or two less-know acts. The WW1 Display team (bottom two images) comprised seven replica aircraft from both sides, recreating dog fight drama in the skies.
