A male #CommonDarter #dragonfly on one of the ponds at #WWTCastleEspie this morning.
It was a small pond and at least five darters were trying to claim it as their own. It was quite the #AirDisplay!

North American Aviation P-51D Mustang. The P-51 was designed to meet a requirement from the American-based British Purchasing Commission during WW2. The BPC wanted North American to build Curtiss P-40s under licence, but North American said 'We can do better than that!' - and they did. However, it wasn't until the Mustang airframe was re-engined with the legendary Rolls-Royce Merlin, that a star was born. Able to escort USAAF heavy bombers all the way to Berlin, it was a massive psychological blow to the Nazi regime. This example is being displayed at an air show in Massachusetts. #NorthAmericanAviation #P51 #Mustang #USAAF #WW2 #fighter #aircraft #Berlin #Curtiss #P40 #BritishPurchasingCommission #aviation #aircraft #photography #aviationPotography #airdisplay #airshow #Massachusetts #USA #invasionstripes

Avro 671 Rota Mk 1 a military version of the Cierva C30 Autogyro, produced by Avro, seen here at one of the last air displays held at Woodford, back in the '90s. Whilst it didn't fly, it did taxi across into position from the other side of the airfield, under its own power. #Photography #Aircraft #Autogyro #Aviation #AirDisplay #Woodford
