Re: Cosford Air Show 2024

Quick question, I haven’t been Cosford for a number of years, do the Reds and Typhoon still use the alternative display axis? (to the west of the airfield) or is it back to the conventional display line?

Albrighton Football club is in a residential area so unless people are been evacuated from their homes you will be still able to get there. Albrighton FC have got a fair day on the airshow day (check out there Facebook page for entry fees etc)

Re: Viewing at Coningsby 12 August

The original plan was LLHS work up on Tuesday with the PDA on Wednesday prior to the first display on Thursday .............. But with 20kts winds forecast tomorrow (granted at 23020kt so a more a head wind rather than a crosswind) but still thinks it's a bit touch and go!!!!!
