The edge of Moreton Hall estate

A very large model of a Yak aerobatic aircraft makes an emergency landing, with smoke on, in front of Rougham airfield's famous row of trees. Behind that we see the Audi dealership and a few houses, neatly symbolising the mixed industrial and housing nature of the Moreton Hall estate. The event was Bury Model Flying Club's "Flying At Its Best" model show.

View from Control Tower, Rougham airshow

This second world war airfield hosts several events each year. This 4 picture panorama covers almost 180 degrees of the Warbird and Classic Car show. The main grass strip runs along the horizon, with a second strip on the left (west). The show itself is based on the grass area on the left, which is separated by a hedge and row of trees behind that central tree from the large field of harvested cereal used for the car park.

Car parking area, Rougham airshow

A harvested cereal field forms the car park for an airshow on the Rougham Airfield. This is a 2 shot panorama. Dozens of aircraft can be seen parked along the runway on the left (north). To the centre-right a row of industrial buildings can be seen, built along the perimeter track. Behind the tall hedge on the right there are further industrial premises, some based on former wartime buildings. The photographs were taken from the top of the old control tower.

View of airshow from control tower

Photographed from the top of the control tower of this second world war airfield, Spitfires are featured over the display ring, which seems to be showing off Jaguars at this moment. At least 3 rows of other classics surround the ring. Situated right on the edge of Bury St. Edmunds, only a few houses can be seen in the background.

Car parking area for airshow, plus industrial buildings

Very early in the day but the car park is already filling. Behind the cars we can see the industrial operations based on the second world war airfield sites. This is a two picture panorama.
