...May I express my thanks to all concerned for the annual Clacton Air Show.

I never fail to be amazed by the speed and the agility of the pilots.

When the older fourengined plane flew over with a twin escort, my eyes filled with tears when I remembered our brave and courageous airmen in the Second World War, who saved Britain from oblivion.

As well as entertaining, I felt the air show in many ways was a fitting and lasting tribute to their memory.
