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....
What The Belgian F-16 Might Not be Arriving until Saturday Morning, Will it Have Time for a Rehearsal ?.

See you there airtyphoon, I'll be arriving at 8ish hoping not to miss anything!

I'm a bit gutted that the F-16 might not arrive on Friday. As long as the VC-10 and the Vulcan do I'll be happy!

Unlikely, if they do a practice no doubt it will be today, no point in flying when nobodies paying for it..

To keep costs down they always tend to do them while already in the air for other reasons like transiting to shows rather than going up specifically for a display practise.

If they do one I'd expect it to be while en route today.
