If all of this does indeed turn up it should be a pretty good year

Not before time. Waiting until 3 days before the show seems to be cutting it a bit fine to me.

And all of that despite the fact that most of TFCs fleet are grounded at the moment. (bit odd they still have the swordfish listed though......)

What's going on at TFC? I understand that the RNHF will be grounded for the rest of the season so no Stringbag. I doubt the Shuttleworth Hind will be there either.

That's the reason for the delay....they've had to source various replacement aircraft from Europe due to the CAA deciding to ground most of their fleet over a paperwork issue....seems to be the season for it at the moment *cough*Vulcan*cough*....

Sounds more like incompetence to me. A few people in the business need their arses kicked. IMHO

There is only one word I can use to describe today's show......awesome....despite the fact that numbers were down it was still absolutely fantastic (the weather helped....surprised by the amount of sun this afternoon). The first time I was moved by an airshow (7 Spits, a buchon and a replica FW190 all tailchasing each other around the sky and over our heads.....)

I think everyone should go to Legends at least once in their lifetime just for that :)

Ah, I've been wondering how you got on Mic. The rest of today's events seem to have been washed out.  

Glad you had a good time. I might venture up there tomorrow. ;)
