The Rolls-Royce event held at Hucknall saw many different displays with all sorts of aircraft, from a humble Cessna 150 Aerobat, to the nostalgic glory of the Spitfire.

Naturally with such a line-up, the Yaks couldn't be left out. The team, however, nearly didn't make it to the event, held on June 23 near Nottingham, due to some persistent rain clouds. 

Jez and Jon sat at Compton Abbas Airfield, all strapped in and ready to go, for well over half an hour while rain clattered against their canopies, before they could finally get airborne. Once in the sky, the team dodged storm clouds before finally landing safe and sound at historic Hucknall.

Despite the bad weather earlier in the day, plenty of aviation lovers made sure to drop by for a visit. After a two-ship display that entertained the crowd, the team made it back to base in one piece.

The team would like to thank the event organisers at Hucknall for the lovely reception, with warm food and tea on arrival, and looks forward to visiting this lovely airfield again next year!
