Sorry, but I couldn’t be bothered to wade through all thet lot.so please forgive me if someone has got in before me with this info. Regarding the debate about whether our airshow prices are too high. The only decent airshow I’ve been to that cost less than £25 was Southend Sea Front and Sea Wings 2000 whic were both free. Margate is only about £7 but for decent photos you need a lens a mile long as the display line is too far away from the crowd.
The last price I heard for the British Grand Prix at Silverstone was £85 in advance or £96 on the day, not sure where that would get you but I do know that if you want to tour the pits it is another 10-15 quid. I’m a petrol head at heart but that’s too rich for me when you get a better view of the race on TV. The only thing you miss on TV is the Supporting event.
