Might be nice for you to credit where all that information comes from rather than claim it as your own!

Nice attitude!!

Where have I claimed as own!!!

Christ some people really need to chill out big time!!

If you want to be funny, I could just quote all the individual teams/acts websites, also don't see you list where your source comes from on your website for every bit of info you have gained!!

Only credit you have sourced is CREDITS: Tigers Freefall Parachute Display Team -

[Flightline UK]

That is because the show's FDD sends me the info for Flightline UK!

I don't mind you copying and pasting the information but a credit would be appreciated! That is all!

Looks like Turkish F-16 not taking part.

Still showing on the Solo Turk website as participating on the 22nd and 23rd. Can anyone confirm they have definitely cancelled?

[Flightline UK]

Solo Turk will not be coming to Bournemouth Air Festival.

[bizfreeq]

Thanks for confirming the bad news

[peasus911]

Sad news about the Solo Turk. Maybe slot for Vulcan on Saturday now...... presumably waiting for a backer like last year.

A lack vacant slots is not the reason the Vulcan isn't currently scheduled for saturday!

Can anybody tell me what the flying programme is for the Thursday the 20th. I see from their web sites the Reds and BBMF are flying, but if possible what else?

[bizfreeq]

As it says on their website,they are still working on the flying programme, so it would seem even they don't know as yet

Apparently it's due to 'Health and Safety'. The Vulcan attracts too many people.... I don't get this either!


So better 'Health and Safety' wise to cram 100,000 people who want to see the Vulcan on Sunday, rather than spread them out over two days, utter nonsense. last year was purely over a backer which I think came from a group of local hoteliers....
I know the "slot" reference was not the reason, purely a gesture on my part. won't happen again.

[Alfie]

Thanks Tilney.G for the information a local coach company are running a day trip to Bournemouth on the Thursday, so two tickets booked, had already decided to go to Dawlish on the Saturday so it saves driving at least one day.

[Richard B]

Could be down to health & safety grounds,
was over 1 million people on the beach from poole to Bournemouth a few years ago when I was there. Vulcan effect.
could be worse with it being the last display .

[Pallen77]

I was going to ask for tips on where is best to view the airshow, but I gather it's just on the beach with the masses.
