observation, please read (pretty please?)
Although somewhat heated, i can understand where you are coming from Invader. We are very lucky over here, and sometimes we have to pinch ourselves. We must not take what we have for granted!
of course i could see the direction of this thread from the outset…
First wave of posts are directed at how this years show just wont be the same, lacking in aircraft, moan, gripe, etc…
Second wave of posts are from the opposing party directed at how we have to take the rough with the smooth, and this years show will be just as good as any…
Third wave of posts directed at the first wave from the points of view of the people involved in the planning of the show, do you know how much work is put into the show, why aren’t you satisfied etc…
Fourth wave of posts will be directed at ‘us brits’ from fellow international warbird fans saying how we don’t know what we’ve got, if it smacked us in the face, do you know how priviliged you are, i’ve only ever seen one spitfire and that was an airfix kit etc…
Final wave of posts will be everyone apologising for their rash statments from any of the previous post waves, though confined probably to the first and second wave. (because the internationals have hit the nail on the head!) Everyone kisses and makes up. 😉

Sorry if this seems like a rant guys, but i hope you understand my early morning rambling and don’t take any of it to heart! I don’t mean to offend, purely enlighten! Just a music students observation of a random thread.
Now everyone give each other a hug and wish all a happy Leg Ends 04! It may be not have the same amount of planes as before, but then again it might! And whatever we do get, we should bloody thankful for, because there was a time when warbirds weren’t as cared for………..
p.s. this entire post can of course be easily combated against with the simple statement: ‘It is a public forum, these issue are meant to be discussed. It is our right dammit!’
