It was Culdrose Air Day yesterday. Culdrose is the biggest helicopter navy base in Europe and every year they have an open day full of planes, helicopters, flying displays etc etc... It is a very busy day, but also something that you just do when you grow up in Cornwall, both me and Tristan had many childhood memories of Air Day.
We got there in the middle of the day, saw some loop the loops, some plane walking people doing crazy dangling stunts, some old world war bomber planes, queued up for ages to sit in a helicopter but the boys got bored of queuing so we left that out.
We stayed for a few hours and left before the main super dooper displays, but we didn't have any queues to get out, which was good as we were all a bit tired.
The boys loved it and it didn't rain either!
The boys loved the wind socks!
They also had a sit on a Police motorbike, which they loved. Rowan turned on the blue flashy lights, how chuffed was he?!
Reuben was too little to reach the flashy light button :(
Just as we were leaving one of the planes flew in the same direction as us, which is Rowans highlight as he thinks the plane was following us to our car!
We stopped to watch a helicopter take off from next to the car park..
