Has the Draken and Viggen display been approved already as per the Viggen last year or can we expect a rehearsal at Waddington before the show?

It still has to be confirmed which squadron the aircraft is coming from.

Just a bit of confusion on my part as originally only one EF2000 was down to attend, I just wondered when it changed to x2? Hence why I was surprised nothing was mentioned about it on this thread.
Anyway, the more the merrior! :D
Hopefully they might send a special scheme aircraft.

The Waddington weather forecast is basically everything the British summer can throw at it.....

Wednesday, very warm and Fair day
Thursday, Clear skies and hot day
Friday, cloudy and high winds
Saturday, RAIN,RAIN and more RAIN
Sunday, clearing, slightly cool and showery

so if your going to arrivals Wednesday (WAVE) and Thursday (P&V) take some sun cream and a hat, Friday your Windbreak, Saturday your water proof and brollies and finally Sunday duck and cover when needed ;)

The forecast certainly doesn't predict rain, rain and more rain. Probably rain in the morning but looms to clear throughout the day
