Indeed, sad news.
Could it be that the IWM wanted a bit more of the Legends pie? Whatever the reason, a sad day within the airshow and historic aircraft world, which will no doubt leave a very big whole at Duxford.
As for an alternative location, as an all round package, Duxford will of course be hard to beat, but if one can be found by the Legends team, maybe it will be more CAA airshow ‘regulation friendly’, in that there will be a minimal need for roads and footpaths to be closed off, along with all those avoids and ‘no fly’ areas that are still present, some five years after the kneejerk reaction caused by the Shoreham tragedy. (And of course, somewhere where airspace restrictions will be minimum!)
Fingers crossed for a better 2021, and best of luck to TFC & the IWM.
Cheers
