A really important point I picked up at a recent visit to Duxford regarding the Summer Airshow. My phone is pretty ancient and won't deal with QR codes, either through the NHS contact tracing app or otherwise. On non-event days and Flying Days this is not a problem as I can manually fill in a test a...

In other news, the announcement of the Saudi Hawks' participation in the Kecskemet Airshow the week after Gdynia, and continued use of Saudi Hawks images in Gdynia's promotional material,...

Flying display addition: Lim2 and SB Lim2 Worth noting that this duo has been cancelled last-minute or reduced to a singleton at every airshow they've been due to fly at so far due to paperwork problems, but hopefully this announcement suggests they're confident in resolving those problems over the ...
