OV-10B Bronco Demo Team



The Abingdon Air & Country Show has always been on our agenda and this year was no exception. The show opens the airshow season and is a very nice and cozy family event supporting the Thames Valley Air Ambulance charity. The 2014 edition was blessed with perfect weather and the crowd turned up in big numbers. The occasion also marked the first airshow appearance of the newly restored Bronco 99+18.

Before arrival on Saturday afternoon from the nearby Kemble Airfield, we took the opportunity to complete an air-to-air photo shoot over the beautiful Cotswold Waterpark. During the shoot the Newcastle Jet Provost, expertly flown by Neil McCarthy, joined our Bronco.


		The Abingdon flying display included a great variety of aircraft displays ranging from the Storch, Trig Team, Tucano, C-130, Dragon Rapide, Bulldog, Spitfire, Jet Provost, Breitling Wingwalkers. The highlight of the show was the first public display of the mighty Canberra PR.9.


It was a fantastic weekend. With thanks to organizer Neil Porter and his great team of volunteers!
