What’s the latest on them then?
Somebody has put a bit on it this time.
officially denied
in Distiller’s 1st post…
Of course they’re going to try and deny it for now.
Did Waddington get an increased footflow though, does anyone know if attendance was up by a couple of thousand?
Trying to get into the Farnborough Website and its not working, so maybe they are updating it
From the Waddington Airsshow site.
“This year saw the highest Saturday attendance that the RAF Waddington Air Show has ever experienced. We were visited by over 70,000 people. This was a truly amazing crowd considering the very changable weather over the whole weekend.”
So many to choose from though;)

You would think they would use the spare aircraft :confused:

The Red that didn’t take part was involved in a bird strike on the way back from Silverstone.
Pilot managed to land OK though.
Found this after a quick search.
“This aircraft, which is ex-G-BSSX, has been painted in a special scheme to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the founding of the Airways Aero Club, the forerunner of the current British Airways Flying Club. The right hand side has been painted in c.1960 British European Airways (BEA) colours, and the left hand side in c.1960 British Overseas Airways Corporation colours”
Not exactly historic but I think I just saw a Hawk go into EGNM.
The BBMF Lanc was built at Chester.
It would be nice if it could pop over to Yeadon (Leeds/Bradford) one day as a tribute to the old Avro factory there.
Here’s the highlights from the BBC website:

Just saw that, I especially liked the Tornado FR.3s…
Well, at least he corrected himself later.
Is it a flypast over Leeds or to the airport?
Like to see him post this item to Australia!:D
He probably would… at a great cost…
Thanks.
Ditto for the Dak at Leeds, anybody know the timings?
Anybody know where that SHAR pic was taken?
It looks like somewhere local to me but I can’t put a finger on it…
Bex…. where are you…….??
