4 Typhoon displays I'm sure that will annoy some . Nice to see the Kiwi 757 back too albeit static plenty of room for them to bring some patches with them
Posh are going to Wembley (albeit for a tin cup)

Looking forward to the BAE Typhoon all fully loaded as never seen it display.
Is the display any good compared to say the RAF?

Does it actually say anywhere it will be 'tooled up'? If so, where?
