Steve
Shirly's team from the Manston Fire Museum entertained the
crowds later by exploding a car and setting it alight, in
order to demonstrate how their fire crew deal with aircraft
fires. They also kindly provided us with on site emergency
fire crew support throughout the show.

The
arena events were spectacular on the Friday; plenty of enthusiasts
turned out to re-enact "Saving Ryan's Privates"
|
|
|
|
|
|
All
the arena re-enactments were choreographed by Jim Dowdall,
who has been the stunt coordinator for various well known
films, from the "Indiana Jones" movies to "Saving
Private Ryan" and "Captain Corelli's Mandolin".
Jim really knows his stuff; he should do, having been the
person who was actually driving the tank in that amazing scene
in the "Goldeneye" James Bond movie...! For more
re-enactment photos, see Sunday's pictures...

Friday
was a good day for strolling around the 300 acre site, trying
to take in some of the 3267 military vehicles that had come
from all over the world to take part...
