The Typhoon is pretty much still in the balance due to whats going on in the world. So will be TBC until it touches down at Kemble, also the Hunter list could've been more - but unfortunately the Swiss Hunters are elsewhere on the show dates so they are not attending.

Traffic is usually pretty good, I've stopped with my mate in Bath and had a run through from the M4 for the Saturday (2009 & 2010) and the traffic is fine, we've usually driven straight on in. The show is certainly one of the better ones too, great selection of planes from past and present. In 2009, out of the shows I went to (Kemble, Waddo, Lowestoft, RIAT & Duxford) I would go as far as saying it was the best shown that year!
Cheers,

If anyone is around on the friday - it will be worth catching the arrival of the Hunters from Exeter as its planned for them to arrive in a 7 ship formation.

Instead of a 170-500 lens, I am now going to be using a 100-400 Canon lens which admittedly isn't the best looking thing in the world (it has a couple of scrapes down the side :lol: ) but it does the job :)

Hoping for good weather also :)
