The Albatross and the Vampires
Two of the crowd favourites [of what I suspect were many favourites :-)] were the two De Havilland DH 115 Vampires and the L39 Albatross. Both of these types looked great in the air, both during their individual performances and also flying as a single formation.

The two formation shots are VERY nice! Bet that brings back memories of the Grummans eh?
Gidday mate! Yeah it brings back memories alright!
