Right can anyone confirm once and for all, if their will be a Wings and Strings in 2005.
Their website says “Thank you once again, we hope to see you at Wings & Strings 2005!”
Yet Aircraft Illustrated say it has been put back until 2005, and their has been a post saying this on UKAR.
Since they never updated their website for months in advance of the 2004 show, then I am thinking it a case of the event is off but their site just ain’t been updated.

Hi Everyone
Is this the year that Lyneham have their eveniing show, which they hold every couple of years. Never been inside before but watched outside after one of Yeoviltons Air Days in July a few seasons back. Excellent mound of earth and gravel put you on the threshold of the runway and had Spitfires taking off and landing above my head and a Tornado F3 taking off in full burner in darkness

Thanks airshowsorguk and wings and strings, for the clarification.
Put back until 2005?
Maybe I should write 100 lines, “I must remember its already 2005”.
There WILL however be the Shuttleworth Original Flying Proms at Old Warden on August 13
I will be their, and am looking forward to it, I might also go to the May evening airshow.

Wings & Strings 2005
Just to settle all doubt, there will not be a Wings & Strings this year. The event last year was dependant on ‘doubling up’ with an existing event. Unfortunately, an appropriate event could not be found to do this with this year.
However, we are working on 2006 and may have some exciting news before too long. We will however sort the website out ASAP.
Thanks for the interest.

There will be no Wings and Strings in 2005. There was never an event planned for this year. The next event will be in 2006.
