Warbirds Over Wanaka Catchup - 1

 After attending this show I then extended my South Island trip with an in-depth exploration of the West Coast.
Having found some interesting articfacts around there, I have only recently arrived back home and got time to look at photos.
For me, the show was a bit limited by the weather, a bit of a stuggle with a new camera, and the layout of the Wanaka airfield itself. The sun is in quite the wrong orientation for good airborne photos. Maybe they should rotate the whole runway 90 degrees?

Anyway here are some of the 'hot stuff' on takeoff:









And the one that didn't actually get to fly due (I understand) to brake problems, Yak-7B ZK-YKB
