I took a similar photo of what I believe is the same location of the same enclosure two years ago.

Regarding cost. You don’t have to pay for anything except the entry, though walking and cycling is open to very few. You can watch the show from lots of locations, and though prime positions are difficult, it’s an airshow – not a car race, which are often real ripoffs.

Obviously the more coin you hand over the more you obtain.

Course you could try getting the array of an ‘ordinary’ Duxford show anywhere else in the Commonwealth. :rolleyes: Methinks some people are taking their riches for granted.

Course, I’d be at the Oval avoiding the rain (I think a ticket for there could be a lot more now than DX IF you could get one!)

You pays yr money…

…BUT it’s just not cricket!! 🙁 The high entry charge to Duxford Air Shows should be enough to allow you to look at and take photos of the participants close-up! There shouldn’t be an additional charge for the Flightline Walk, just so you can have a closer look at what you paid to see in the first place!

As much as I hate seeing our heritage go overseas, we shouldn’t be greedy as we already have one Lincoln at Cosford and I’m delighted that at last someone is going to save this from scrap! I have fond memories of this Lincoln, parked in the static at Farnborough Air Shows 1959-61 as G-APRJ of Napier Icing Research. Well done Mark and hope it is successful!

Archer is correct on both points.

Stearman is at Cranfield (an airfield with a University)

And Sally B didn’t land at this venue, which HAS been mentioned for another pic, btw.

Sorry, West Malling (despite repeated asks) is NOT, repeat NOT featured as any of the unsolved venues. 😉

“Sally B” at Redhill perhaps?

Any way….Heres for a great weekend and safe flying and a salute to those who gave so much!

…..that’ll be YOU after the show, then? :rolleyes:
