My brother is down at Pevensea at the moment and texted me while I was at work saying how much he was enjoying lying on the beach soaking up and the sunshine while the BBMF,Eurofighter etc were displaying overhead. I wasn’t even slightly envious.

Hello,
We watched todays display from up on the grass slopes on the seaward side of the road up to Beachy Head..which was quite free (£3-90) and easy parking and viewing today, said to be the quiet day.???
Signage noted all in place for park and ride scheme.
No doubt it would be a closer view from within the crowds on the seafront..
But..I don’t do crowds…and in fact haven’t done an airshow for many years…
I enjoyed the display..the light was a bit hazy for viewing from up on the Downs at first, but then later in the afternoon it was very much clearer.
Thank you Susan for taking me a ride out….
Clive.

Rob,
Living a few miles away in Lewes we go most years. The seafront gets packed, but is closest to the action. Head to the right hand end of the beach/prom for best sun angle for photos etc. A good spot is near the “Wish tower” museum (old martello tower).
For a different view take the road towards beachy head, but follow it up onto the downs. This is a good spot to watch the reds etc, though you need to duck at times as their ground clearance can be pretty slim up there!
We are going tomorrow, weather looks a bit iffy Sat. Haven’t decided where we’ll watch from, as Mrs Paul F and teenage daughter want to hit the shops first, so I guess we’ll be amongst the sardines on the prom somewhere.
