The Great War Display Team:

    Fokker Dr1 Triplane

Saturday is traditionally the busiest day for the Air Festival, and the warm weather brings visitors in the hundreds of thousands. It's the first time this weekend that the Great War Display Team put in an appearance, all the more poignant because of the ending of the conflict 100 years ago.

These aircraft are particularly easy to photograph as they don't move very fast, but you still need to get that prop blur.
