I have always had a passion for British built Aircraft with the Auster topping the list, So a invite from the Auster Club to take some pictures at the event. Spanhoe Airfield is a place I have visited many times taking pictures of based Auster’s ,Chipmunk’s and a large number of vintage classic aircraft that are rebuilt and serviced by Windmill Aviation.
