Interesting, any more information on the Auster Club fly past? I’m a member of the club and haven’t seen anything in the magazine/events calendar on the website/discussion group etc, and there’s no co-inciding with other Auster Club events

May go along, didn’t realise there was an event on and it’s fairly local

I don’t think the BBMK usually display 2 SPitfires, 2 Hurricances and the Lanc together, other than very special events like the LLA day etc.

One of each are slotted for Horham and Bungay, so could they fly home past Snibston? (as a typical Londoner, these places could be on Mars for all I know!!)

FYI, a chap on A.N. Other website created a very handy page http://www.quacky.co.uk/tmp/007/displaynotams.htmlthat extracts the NOTAMS for airshows and is very handy for when the (otherwise useful) BBMF Excel file does not have the times of the displays. I hope to spot the Spitfire over Rickmansworth on Saturday and the Lanc over Hendon Sunday (if it is in the country).
