RAF Cosford Airshow 2023

[Blue5]

Wouldn't hurt for the skies to be a bit moody, like for the German Navy P-3 flypasts in 2019, that was lovely

as long as its not plain blue skies with no cloud, I'm happy.nothing worse for photography...and lets not forget..moisture in the air means spluff.....bring it on

I second this massively! Plenty of fluff is a winner

[Jason32]

Just back from seeing some arrivals and watched the RJ Falcons and Patrouille Suisse practice display (in clear blue skies, not much fluff lol)

[Discodaz]

yeah but the rain arrives tomorrow...so should get some moisture in the air sunday

Looks like blackjack is knackered and a normal grey typhoon will display on Sunday…

Weather not looking too bad now

[The Cat]

Won't get a programme until tomorrow so does anyone have any display times......at least for the 'star' items.

[Samgriffo]

If star items are the following BBMF 12.15 hrs so Typhoon I guess will follow as it is displaying with the Lancaster the Swiss are apparently 14.00 hrs and Reds at 13.32 hrs.

[Samgriffo]

Reds 15.32 hrs.

Anybody know the radio frequencues for tommorows show?

All today's activities have been on the normal vhf ones: Ground (approach) 135.875 , and Tower 128.65. I'd guess the same for the show...?

[mjm320340]

Reds 15.32 hrs.

Hi Sam,

Do you have the times of everything else please?

Tutor cancelled.

Tutor Display at Cosford Airshow cancelled.

Unfortunately, despite the hard work the Tutor Display Team and Babcock have put into getting the Tutor Display ready for Cosford Airshow, as a result of a technical issue within the wider Tutor fleet, we will not be able to display tomorrow.

We will still be at our stand in the RAF village so come over and say hi!

[jasonT1981]

Wildcat apparently out too. Belgium NH90 went tech today and is being worked on.
