There’s an update on the May Airshow at:
Presumably the gliders will be landing at dawn to secure the footbridge over the A505 and liberate the Duxford Restaurant?
Some confusion on the operators towards the end of the list of participants unless the BBMF now operate Sally B and we now have a privately operated Eurofighter Typhoon !!!

As I didn’t see any of the usual folk about today at DX, I thought I’d do a quick edit from today’s action. I can post more later if you like…

I think the usual suspects were otherwise elsewhere today so more pictures would be nice.

An interesting visitor was Auster 5/150 G-ALXZ now wearing a camouflage scheme and its military serial NJ689. G-INFO indicates it only received its exemption certificate last Thursday 10th April to fly just with its military serial so this may be one of its first outings as such ( possibly also since it was first civilianized)
