One of my favorites is not in the flying line-up yet. Please can we have a A400M, always puts on a great display for such a large aircraft
I am still hoping for that too Alfie as like you said always puts on a great display for such a large aircraft....Hope it does display as not many large items in the display apart from the flypasts.

Concur with your sentiments but with only four weeks to go I can't help but thinking that the line-up looks a little dull this year.

I’m still hoping for a flying Phantom or a A-10 but I won’t hold my breath!

There is apparently an F86 Sabre restored to flying in Europe (France?) Would be great to see flying or static.

Pretty happy at what is coming, but I do feel a bit short changed as I have brought a Sunday ticket. The only thing I wish for now is bright blue skies perhaps with a few small white fluffy clouds to make the photographs a little bit better looking.

Eagle Driver refers to dross, not everybody that goes is a die in the wood grey jet anorak and we do like to see a variation in the displays. Plus the fact the Boeing Stearman biplanes have a long military history being used as a basic trainer and even if they have got very flexible acrobats attached to the top wings the sight and sound of these old planes is just a joy to a lot of people.

You seem to be forgetting a huge plus point for the Wing Walkers. The girls on the top of the biplanes are talented, athletic and a huge focal point for those who may become inspired to have a career in Aviation in some way.

Plus, they are very pretty..... :cool:
