ww2 Formation Flying Photos .....

Post by K4KittyCrew »

If anyone has any 'formation flying' photos, you might like to add them here. They can be of any type of RAF or Luftwaffe aircraft. Here are a couple to start off with.

These are all from the Waddington Collection and are self-explanatory, though you could argue that I've been a bit liberal in my interpretation of formation flying. Love the photos nonetheless!!
