I am looking to do this show on 9th June.
Living in lincs,I'm planning on flying
KLM Hummberside - Amsterdam - Aalborg.
I see it's reported that the spotters day is Sat 8th,but only 200 places
Has anyone been before
Is it any good and any tips

Thanks in advance

Re: Warning!? Waddington and other airfields

I agree with all the valid points made before.

I think this has come about after the "dipshxxs" have talen selfies under the approach at Coningsby.
It's not really plane spotters,but Joe Public

"missing" F-35's at Lakenheath

But have not seen them mentioned recently

Could they be having a software refit

Re: Radom International Air Show

Ahhh
With so many aircraft,it's only natural to miss a few

FYI

Belgium A400M CT-07 landed and departed later

Saturday/Sunday
I think you are missing Three Aircraft from your list
German A400M 54+18
Finish F-18 HN-411
Polish EH101 ZR288
