Bournemouth Air Festival 2019

Bournemouth Air Festival 2019 has come & gone. I had some interesting visitors & wonderful aerobatic displays. Hear is one of the best fish photos I took in 30th August 2019.


I've seen couple of helicopters, Boeing Chinook from the RAF was their seen it a lot in Bournemouth. This is Black Cats from the Royal Navy the AW159 Wildcat by the manufacturer AgustaWestland. Black Cats flew from start to the end of the air festival with amazing stunts!

A classic from WW2 & true heroes in British Aviation history with BBMF Lancaster ontop followed by the Spitfire each later on done their own display before re-grouping once more. I don't have the best photos for 2-in-1, this one is the best with clouds in the background while it was overcast.

We've never seen a widebody jet airliner in Bournemouth Air Festival so this was the first ever Boeing 737 aircraft flying over Bournemouth beach when preforming around the beach twice. This is a U.S Navy P-8A a military & modify version of a Boeing 737 Next Generation the 800 series based from  Naval Air Station Sigonella, Italy next door to Catania. For those who don't know Italy has seven U.S Navy basses for American military use and freighters for U.S Airforce and FedEx. 


This is a special part o Bournemouth Air Festival called Ultimate Warbird Flights preforming aerobatic displays and roleplay of dogfights for the Spitfire, Buchan, P-47D Thunderbolt and Mustang. 

Who love Typhoon? Yes! it did some outstanding aerobatic display roaring through our ears and car alarm goes off! I tried so many photos quickly as I could because this fighter jet is super fast that I couldn't keep up. This was also my last photo of the day at Bournemouth Air Festival 2019. 

With the absent of the Red Arrows currently in North America we hope they will return Bournemouth Air Festival 2020 as well as seeing them in Farnborough International Airshow 2020.
