I am at Farnborough at the moment, and have been viewing from Ullswater ave playing field, someone today thought it was a good idea to fly a radio controlled drone until it was hard to see up in the sky in the airspace above the field .

was that around 1315?

It was after 1pm cant remember what time exactly, it was a white cross shape drone thingy amazing to whatch it though, it reached high altitude so fast.

Are you at the show?

[GVLCN]

If the f-35 turns up it'll be a great show, will be great to see a Spanish harrier display. Been a few years since I've seen one fly.

That sounds like a DJI Phantom. I've been flying one since February 2013 and they're a great piece of kit if flown properly and within the CAA guidelines. The pilot should NOT have been within the NFZ

Fingers crossed http://voiceofrussia.com/uk/news/2014_0 ... ding-0166/

Has the Spanish AV-8B Sea Harrier been validated for the air show?

Heard that it hasn't and wonder if it will fly this weekend.

Great display by the Spanish navy harrier May I ask what serial it is please

There were two there when I visited on Tuesday:-
VA.1B-38 coded "26" in static southside
VA.1B-24 northside, presumably for flying demo later in the week (forgot to note code for that one)

Hope that helps,

Best thing I have seen all season, brought back memories of years gone by....fantastic to see a Harrier derivative in UK skies once again! Well done the Spanish Navy

The Spanish harrier displayed today (Friday) . Boeing aren't flying anything although the P8 is now sporting a pair of harpoons under the outer pylons. Note that the exhibition halls are going to be closed for the weekend due to pilfering last year (according to our courtesy car driver) and the souvenir programmes hadn't arrived as of today.

Boeing didn't fly anything today as a mark of respect to the Malaysian Airlines catastrophe which involved one of their a/c types. Also all the flags in the showground were lowered to half mast first thing this morning as a similar mark of respect.
