Sadly I believe Farnborough is no longer a site that can host modern, safety conscious, flying displays. I live about 1 mile to the north of the airport and the reds come over me at about 500ft, they probably flew over around 20,000 peoples homes. The airshow will become Mon-Thurs trade only, and I have been saying that for years. The airshow are building a new ,permanent, exhibition center after this years so and plan to have lots more exhibitions there. TAG will be happy because more bizjets will visit during show week and it wont impact their business. The only looser in the airshow punter. The public days have been going down hill fast. Thing is it’s so accessible from London. Hour from Waterloo and you can be in the show. Even Biggin Hill is not that easy to get to by public transport from London.
