A Pair of Edwardians in Gorgeous Light

The great conditions for Shuttleworth’s Festival of Flight Sunday show meant we got to see a lot of the more fragile types fly. Later in this section of the show, we had the Bristol Boxkite and the Avro Triplane take to the sky. I know they are both replicas but that doesn’t make them any less rare or vulnerable. They flew around for quite a while and, since they are not speedy aircraft, they can keep it all close in front of the crowd. The light was definitely at its peak during their display. Here are a few shots of the two of them putting on a show.
