Bentwaters air show

re;

thanks for the info. Looks like a small intimate airshow. Be a nice contrast to Waddington.

Last time I was there we were camping in buildings and operating Harrier GR.7s there.

Last time I was at an airshow there, the 81st were flying F-4s…. *cries*

Regarding public transport. Your best bet would be to get a train to Melton or Woodbridge stations and get a taxi to Bentwaters (about 5 miles away). The bus service is virtually a non-starter on a Sunday!

Would be wonderful if, in years to come, it could come close to matching the last (1991) show that I attended :diablo:
