Debach Airfield Convoy - May 31st

The Sunday morning of the Debach open day started quite wet, however it did start to dry up around lunch time for the planned convoy. The route took us on a combination of minor roads and farm fields with Jeeps at the front, Dodges and other medium vehicles in the centre, and the GMC's and other heavy vehicles bringing up the rear.

Soon after these pictures were taken, the Jeep a few ahead of us got stuck and couldn't get into four wheel drive. By the time he got sorted, he had lost the convoy, and took us briefly the wrong way. We realised his mistake and turned around in time to catch the mid part of the Dodge section of the convoy. It did however allow us to capture some different views with the trucks as we headed back to the airfield.
