Piper Warrior II - Trial Flight over Norfolk, UK

My keen interest in aviation has lead to a small collection of aircraft pictures and some low resolution videos:

New Orleans & Amsterdam:

The first two pictures were taken on a KLM 747 from Houston to Amsterdam. The next two were taken at Houston Airport. These pictures are 1024x768:

Videos: (DIVX 4.03 and IMA ADPCM audio codec)

These videos are of a KLM 747 landing at Amsterdam (Schiphol Airport) and of the same 747 banking to the right and levelling off in flight.

Old Buckenham Airshow 2003:

Here are photos taken at the Old Buckenham Airshow in the Summer of 2003. This airshow was well attended due to the cancellation of several other major airshows that are usually held in Norfolk. Please click on a thumbnail to see a full-sized image. All images are 1024x768 (Wallpaper friendly).

As well as a moderate selection of light aircraft from this and most of the last century, the airshow also offered a choice of food and beverages, and several stalls selling aircraft toys, books and other merchandise. Strangely, the airshow sported a huge display of vintage cars (There were more cars than aircraft) - One car that stood out for me was the Cadillac, (picture above) whose well-polished exterior glistened spectacularly in the seasonal sunshine. A 'well' priced entry fee, good food and a fairly good selection of aircraft made this airshow worthwhile...however, standing in the 50m long queue for the barbecue stall with the sun facing my back gave me horrific sun-burn on my neck and a face redder than a postbox! :)

Using the movie feature on my Canon Powershot A40 Camera, I took a few videos of the airshow. These videos are encoded using DIVX 4.03 and use IMA ADPCM audio compression (If you don't hear anything you will need to enter IMA ADPCM into a search engine and download this codec). I must stress that the quality of these videos is not superb because of the low bitrate in which I encoded them so that download times would be small.

Norwich International Airport:

Here are a selection of pictures (1024x768), videos (DIVX 4.03 and IMA ADPCM audio codec) and a Quick Time Virtual Tour of an area facing the runways and hangers at Norwich International Airport.
