Despite morning showers, the Air and Country Show was sunny from around 2:30 PM. The event was less crowded than usual.
From RAF Brize Norton the Boeing C17 A Globemaster flew over the show and then came into land. There was a long queue all day of people waiting to board the plane.
The sight of a Hawker Hurricane Mk1 flying above was made more striking by a replica on the ground.
The Redline Home Guard, representing the BRX1 (Abingdon) Battalion, had an area showing weapons and a field office, and they gave a display of marching.
Chewbacca and Stormtroopers were posing for photos with countless stallholders and attendees alike.
Attendees could sit in the restored cockpit of a Buccaneer.
Mr. Punch’s insulting names for Judy, Rudy Doodie, and the Policeman, copper, always backfired. The audience enjoyed watching him get caught and scolded. Mr Punch also tried his hand at parenting, but his unawareness of a lurking green crocodile, he’s behind you, caused consternation and laughter.
This is just a brief sample of what was on offer. Congratulations to the team for putting the event together at shortish notice after the May event was cancelled.
