Well, despite the various schools of thought over her colour scheme, we are delighted to have received the UK Airshow Review (UKAR) Classic Jet Display category award for 2005 – the second year in a row.
I suppose it shows that with sponsorship we can, at least, keep her flying, and present her to an appreciative audience.
2004 Awards page is here…

Finally, thank you to everyone who voted for Foxy, it is always appreciated that such ongoing work, and piloting, is recognised in this way.

Apologies for digging up an old thread – just stumbled across this one while searching the forum.
The Sea Vixen was voted by our forum members as the best Classic Jet display for the 2005 season and it was with great pleasure that myself, Paul Osborne and Steve Buckby presented pilot Brian Grant with the trophy at Southend Airport two weeks a go.
The full list of 2005 winners will be announced on the website in the near future – we’re running slightly behind schedule as we spent a lot of time trying to find a sponsor before Aircraft Illustrated came onboard and backed not only our awards, but also our website and forum too. We’re now just waiting to hear back from the last few winners before we go live.
Once again, congratulations to all at De Havilland Aviation.
Hear hear!
Does DHA accept donations to help with the running of G-CVIX?

Well Done NATY and everyone at dehavilland Aviation. 😎
Lets hope the display organisers can recognise this and take a leap of faith and book her. I’m suprised Kemble haven’t booked her, them being the leaders in classic jets at airshows. :confused:
