Looks rather good - there's more RAF participation than was advertised on the RAF own website - they (sorry, we), must be needing some good PR...

Nice to see both the Sea Fury and Sea Hawk on there...

Can't wait, it'll be only my second show this year . Roll on Sunday...

No Dove, Heron, Nimrod or Hind?  Not worth going, then...

7 Spits
I think my boxer-short elastic is on the lampshade

What...no deHavilland of Canada DHC-3....well I guess I won't be there LOL

Cheers Happy Landings...Doug

I will be going on Sunday weather or no weather. The forecast does not look too bad and as long as the wind stays low it should be a good show. I am delighted to see the Sea Fury has been added to the list. Not expecting too much from my new camera yet as this will be its first airshow and I reckon it will take a couple of outings to get the hang of it but I am looking forward to seeing Hagar

I've seen the Dove, Heron & Hind several times this season & posted shots for you. Also a Nimrod - of the modern variety.

Of course I realize that and deeply appreciate it ...  but, as we well know, why let the facts ruin a story?  It's like Ozzy going to an airshow with no Spitfires ...

Err Ken time for you to visit the opticians mate

yeah, there must be something wrong with me. i went through the list three times before i posted my reply...strange.  ::)

I didn't edit it. Honest. Check the link for confirmation.

The weathermen seem to have changed their minds - again. http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/5day.shtml?id=1413
Nothing unusual in that as they change their minds like the proverbial wind. They now say it will be bright & sunny. Not sure I believe anything they tell me but we shall see.

I'm taking plenty of warm clothing as it will probably be a tad chilly on the airfield with a strong easterly wind blowing.

So am I. 18 mph wind (how can they be so precise?). Ah well, better set the alarm clock for 02early00 hrs...

Wonder which car park I'll be put in this time....
