G-CVIX, Hope you don’t mind if I borrow your thread title to post a few pics from Lowestoft, same scenario, different players, opposite side of country.
Keith.

Thank you all for your insight into displaying is sea mist etc, I was not moaning about the spit / hurri not displaying, just could not remember the exact reasons given !
To the future, it is looking good for 2009, below are a few quotes taken from the Eastern Daly Press. Keith.

An estimated 445,000 people lined the beach and seafront over the two days of the 12th festival to enjoy displays by the Red Arrows, the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight and the Eurofighter Typhoon.

The wing-walkers of Team Guinot and aerobatics from the Blades display team wowed the thousands who headed to the seafront in hot weather yesterday.

Show managing director Paul Bayfield said this summer’s best-ever turnout, with about 225,000 people visiting yesterday, would secure the future of the event. “It will go ahead in 2009 without question. Looking along the seafront seeing all these people is amazing. They are all enjoying themselves, and it makes me realise what an important event this is for everybody in the town – it’s really quite humbling,” he added.

High on my wish list for 2009, is that all aviation forum could include a spell checker ! (says he after checking this very carefully) I think !

Paddy R, Thank you for that comment, but I must say of 634 shots taken on the day, 2Gb of memory card, I have saved only 90 ! So your camera is possibly as good as mine ! The main difference could be the operator of the equipment !!! Cheers Keith.

The Vulcan, for me, was the star of the show ! but there were others …. in no particular order ….. Keith.

Lowestoft Today !

She came, We saw, She concured ! 558 arrived on time and in good condition, lots of wows and clicking of camera buttons, according to the commentators, possibly a record crowd (300,000) ! a sample below. so does the vulcan effect exist ? Keith.
