Duxford Air Show May 2011

Duxford’s big Spring 2011 airshow celebrated “Women in Aviation” as its theme and more than half the display featured women pilots and personalities.

Zan Blundell displayed the Yak-52 and globe-trotting Polly Vacher showed her Piper Dakota. Tizi Hodson showed off her aerobatic skills in the Slingsby T67 Firefly.

Diana Britten flew the CAP232 through an amazing sequence of gyroscopic aerobatics and Fl Lt Jules Fleming displayed the RAF Hawk.

Carolyn Grace in the Spitfire IXT and Anna Walker in the Seafire XVII provided the most appropriate tribute of the day; to the women of the Air Transport Auxiliary, and the Breitling Wingwalkers provided the glamour!
