Al Ain Airshow,
UAE, 26th to 28th Jan'07
Jim Leroy in his Bulldog was again a
star of Al Ain'07....sadly he lost his life when he crashed in a show back
in the USA later in the year. He'll be sorely missed around the world. R.I.P
Jim....my tribute to you...

Bulldog limbo...
...view from close up by the poles
yes he was this close...!
slow fly by - look at the shadow!
As the sun was setting, explosions
were used as Jim & Jurgis flew opposition
passes
the wall of flames...!
Jurgis close up
Etihad Airways flew an A330-200 at the show as a key
sponsor, piloted by Capt Granger. A solo pass at first then a world record
formation, for the greatest take off weight difference between the aircraft
types....!
Zoltan Veres in his Extra (SP-KYK) & Victor Chmal in the borrowed SU-31 (LY-AKG)....cracking
job guys...!
slow and low over the dunes to let the guys join the formation
great formation @ 145knots...!
A330 hanging close to stall speed...
...with the aerobatics guys going almost flat out...!
