Air Show Arrivals Day
Air Show Arrivals Day
John - can you throw any light on the form for Arrivals Day please. The show website is conspicuously empty. Assume it's as usual? Pity the Czech's have cancelled and the US stuff will no doubt arrive early in the week. Thanks

The 'tent brigade' are no longer a problem. The organisers stopped tents and windbreaks on the front line last year. They now have to be a few metres back.

Re: Air Show Arrivals Day
No. See Mayfly's post. The sold out is in reference to the Spitfire Grandstand which is open on the Saturday and Sunday show days.youth wrote:Friday s arrivels day is sold out !?
Keep an eye on the Waddington Airshow website. There is normally a webpage detailing the arrival and departure day enclosure just off the A15 (Not the WAVE). That enclosure is non advance ticket. You just pay on the gate.
