Nice to see that the RAF have "provisionally accepted", I thought that this was their main airshow these days?

Probably attending this with son and daughter.

Took daughter here last year though she found inside a little daunting on the saturday.So we only stayed inside for a few hours before returning to camp site.

The boy was at Leuchars last year and handled that no problem so be good to get them both down here for the show.

Decent. Feels like a while since Waddo last had a F18 display.
