We certainly did BAW 8)

Tweek and I will consider it for a future show, concordepilot, but I we want to have the airshow in a different country every time, instead of having them all in a few countries :)

How about my grass airstrip....?

The fence at the bottom of the garden is fitted with an arrestor string....
...perfectly safe...trust me...

...and tea and biscuits are supplied free of charge during the event..... :-*...!

Aye, Fozzer's grass strip looks a wee bit small...but there's free refreshements and an arrestor cable - looks like Hereford could become noisy with the roar of jets as we host the next show in "Fozzer's Back Garden ( code is EFOZ ;D)

Military bases tend to be the best for shows, as they usually have the longest runways, suitable for all kinds of aircraft. They're also the places most large airshows take place, too.

As for 3 runways in  / _ \ that sort of configuration, it's very easy to lose your bearings, especially if you're flying a display from the cockpit. It's usually best to have 1 or 2 runways max.

Continents we've already visited have been Europe, North America and Asia - whuch means we'll probably host the next few shows somewhere in South America, Africa and Australia 8)

...Beware...

...during our Famous Jimbo's Tours, we have observed so far that Australia is mostly flat...as in VERY FLAT....as in Not Many Hills.... :'(...!

So if you are hoping for a nice scenic background, maybe better to look elsewhere...;)...!

Edit: I am now receiving letters of complaint from the Australian Tourist Board.... :o...!
