Wing walkers performing daring stunts and vintage planes from the Second World War wowed thousands of onlookers as Eastbourne Airbourne celebrated its 30th anniversary.
A Lancaster Bomber and Spitfires were among the planes to take over the skies above Western Lawns for the annual air show.
The wing walkers hung upside down while strapped to the top of a plane as it performed loops and spins in the air to the delight of fans.
Visitors to the air show on Saturday were blessed with clear blue skies as the planes flew past in formation over Eastbourne.
Thousands of people descended on the beach each day to watch the displays overhead.
Plane-enthusiasts also crowded on Beachy Head to catch the best glimpse of the planes from the cliff tops.
Vintage planes took to the skies in displays celebrating the Battle of Britain and D-Day.
Stunt planes later flipped in the sky performing colourful displays and drawing loops in the sky with their contrails.
Airbourne is celebrating its belated 30th birthday after two shows were cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
The shows on Friday, Saturday and Sunday came after the Red Arrows celebrated their own 60th birthday with a breath-taking display over the sea on Thursday.
The RAF stunt team filled the skies with red, white and blue as they performed some of their signature manoeuvres for the excited crowds on Eastbourne beach.
Eastbourne Airbourne has also included dozens of displays from military branches filling the seafront along Western Lawns towards Wish Tower.
