A very reduced calendar for me this year for a number of reasons. Three trips to Old Warden and Meet the Fighters are Duxford as a paying spectator plus a week working as a volunteer at RIAT. For me Old Warden is the best airshow venue in the country and possibly the world, nowhere else I've been to matches the atmosphere.
Shuttleworth Season Premier, the new display line at the time meant not many photos were taken of the flying:

Hurricane I R4118 G-HUPW - Hurricane Heritage by stu norris, on Flickr

The Fly Navy show at Old Warden was, for me, the show of the season. Superb line up including the Sea Vixen and who will forget the TFC trio tearing up the airfield.

Weather was typical at RIAT and didn't get to see much of the flying due to working:
