Looks like an interesting event, should be a decent day! Would be good to see a couple of French SA.341s!

Thought I originally saw some Army Air Corp Gazelle examples at least on static at the start and surely the Gazelle Squadron would be able to send a couple. Does anyone know who has declined their invites. With only around four weeks to go I feel 12 Gazelles would be low in the organisers hopes. :S

There's only static ;)

Still working on the military examples, lots of hoops to jump through - even for Wallop based ones.

Plenty of discussions still ongoing with aircraft owners too.
