Generally 558 flies in on the Friday. I'm sure the information on the day of arrival will get out, usually does. keep an eye on the Vulcan twitter or facebook for times.

Hi
Anyone on here know if the RNHF Sea FUry FB11 will be ready to fly - still says flying on the website but as they moved the second Swordfish to static recently I was wondering if the FB11 would be ready? Loved the T20 display in the last few years so would be great to see an FB11 too!

As far as I'm aware the FB.11 will not fly on air day. Lets just hope RNHF don't have problems with their tires....... :lol: :lol:

Tonight's Sea Vixen flight is canx, so I guess that pretty much ends any hope of them displaying at VL next weekend.

Wouldn't Mind a Couple of Slow/Fast Passes By the Sea Vixen if they Cant Rehearse a Full Display, Topside and Dirty Pass Would be Great.

I Hope to Meet Some of You Next Weekend.

Someone Quickly Grab those Spanish Typhoons at Leeming and Ask for them to Attend for Static.

11am is Correct, Yeovilton Said it in the June Newsletter.
if The Weather is Like Today then i Wouldn't be Surprised if we all look as Red as a Tomato by the End of Air Day.

Considering the Red's are OPENING the show and the show starts at 11am then no it's not too early :D

I note that there are "late arrivals" on show day from 9:30-10:30, does anything usually turn up at this point and if so what could is possibly be in the line up?

Apparently some of the RAF are turning up on the morning and the Belgian F-16(?).......Who knows what surprise might turn up......

Waddo; the Polish Mig-29 validated his display on the Saturday morning back in 2011....
