American Air Day

Post by Pune » Mon Jul 30, 2012 7:04 pm

Hi Guys and Gals,
My wife and I have tickets for the above in a week or so, any info' on what we may see, we are really looking forward to it so hopefully it will be as good as it sounds, though not much flying I gather.
Any info' appreciated.
Best Regards

Flying prevails whenever a man and his airplane are put to a test of maximum performance.

Here's a report I did from 2009 http://www.aeroresource.co.uk/articles/ ... f_duxford/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; 2010's show was pretty much the same (couldn't go in 2011) Its definatly worth going, just bear in mind it's not an airshow, its a community day with flying elements. Worth taking extra money with you if Sqn merchandise is your thing as all the Mildenhall and Lakenheath Sqn's have had stall's in the past ;)
