Which show is this?
It was RAF Cosford Pix, wanted to get to the point where folks used to gather, pre that catastrophic accident a few years ago, parked the van, got the bikes out and headed for this point. Security guards were at the side roads needed to get to that viewing point, we were told, only residents were allowed access so, we found a field gate, and, got a great view of the planes, never got to see the 50000+ folks milling around in the airshow compound, but, got a great view of the Euro Fighter with Union Jack graphics on the underside following the Spitfire.
you are a very naughty naughty naughty boy!!!
This was our pitch in this green and pleasant land.
The Hurricane and the Spitfire.

Oooh! I do like those photosâŠvery dramatic! 
did ya have ya umbrellas handy?
This is the fuselage of a Wot4 model aircraft, It was the first build I did for my son twenty years ago, at the time it was the first default plane for people who had just passed their test enabling them to fly unsupervised or buddied up. This one has seen some action and, was changed from the original livery but, we have ordered some of the original decals and are about to restore it, it not having seen the light of day for about 18 years.
They can be Prop Hanged and knife edged in preparation for the first low wing experience.

AyeâŠbet its finished before the kitchen ever will be! 
Under normal circumstances I would have agreed with you but, I have had to bite the bullet and employ a Carpenter to commission the Kitchen.

No, I have to do all the preparatory work, to make the Carpenter look good
