And goodness knows how long the queues will be !

Re: RAF Cosford Airshow 2023

Took a friend who has never been to an airshow and they really enjoyed it and that perhaps sums it up. 'first timers' and families who just want a day out probably thought it good. For me a very poor show with gaps and cancellations. (tremendous heat haze by the way) Very poor display by the Herc, A...

F35 did a pass then a hover display but no reheat in its display. Then the Lanc finished VERY hot day off.

Re: Royal International Air Tattoo 2023 General Discussion Thread

Yes....it could always be better but let's not forget the 'Covid' years with no static/ displays at all. We should be grateful for anything now.

Re: Duxford Dates 2022

I am only able to get to the show at 2pm. Anyone know what entry traffic is like at that time and were your likely to get parked please as need a quick getaway.
Or is there any local places to watch for an hour ?
Due to commitments I only have a few hours spare.

Re: South Korean - Black Eagles

Slightly different display by the 'Eagles' including a high loop as weather was very good but only a 5 minute taster.
As known
'Reds' are only performing with a 7 ship for this season as 2 of the team have left.

Re: South Korean - Black Eagles

Excellent 10 minute display today (low due to cloud base) much tighter formation than last time they were here.
Mig 15 was very nice to see and an awesome display by the special scheme Typhoon.
Roll on tomorrow again !

I can find no information on any 'Arrivals Day' access etc so presume there won't be one ?
