Request for smaller show dates

[GOOSE]

Anyone got any dates for smaller aviation events, such as Families days, flypasts etc?

I'd like to make the Air Show listing as comprehensive and accurate as possible.

Please list events with Military / Warbird participation only.

There is a BBMF Spitfire display due at "Northwich Thunder sprint" (Cheshire) on Sunday May 9th at either 1.15pm or 1.25pm (I have heard two different times so be there for the earlier one and you're sure to see it )

Cheers Goose, website for the Open Day will be on here - http://www.bcwm.org.uk/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

We will probably have an update on the June show as well once more info arises, and also Carolyn Graces site will be good for this as well. But the this airshow is not run by us this year as it has got too big!

Thanks

Main airshows thread updated today. Still interested in the smaller shows where military or ex-military aircraft may attend.

Remember the smaller events are often better for photography providing that unique shot / angle.

The inclusions have dried up?

That can't surely be it?

16th August 2010, Aldeburgh carnival, Sea King from Wattisham demonstration with the Aldeburgh Lifeboat

http://www.aldeburghcarnival.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I did some shots last year and a better photographer than me would get some blinders!

One of the Apache squadrons at Wattisham has the freedom of Aldeburgh and does a flypast once a year, but I have no idea of date!
Thats all I can think of for now Goose but im sure some guys out there with PPLs know of fly-ins which usually have an ex-mil Plane amongst there number?

Heres a shot from last years carnival


Sorry if I should not put here, just a flavour of it!

Hope its ok to post this as its not strictly an airshow but Wickenby wings and wheels is 19th and 20th June, Normally get a flypast from the red arrows and a spitfire. Also there is a fly-in of civilian planes but you do get the odd ex-mil lplanes ike the chipmunk for example.
