Manky Monkey Motors

first time iv'e been to this good selection of aircraft and cars. took several pics of a dragster and was asked if they could have copies, seems he's one of the wild bunch. pics to follow, so many to sort through and vids as well of the hurricane, p51, dc3, pby catalina, avro anson and some others i think.

right piccy time after having a sort through i think it better to adjust the continuous shooting thing as many don't look that much different.
