Re: Jersey International Air Display 2021

A challenging show for the organisers, I'm sure, hit hard by last-minute cancellations and weather delays, but also with some very memorable moments. Sadly I think the talking points will be the aircraft that we didn't see. The Swedish Air Force Historic Flight were due to fly at the tail end of the...

Re: International Sanicole Airshow 2021

FYI I don't think Team Raven will be flying as a five-ship any time soon. They're also using all RV-8s, not RV-4s. Likewise, aren't Baby Blue a four-ship team rather than a five-ship?

Re: Athens Flying Week - Tanagra Air Show 2021

I love your shots, please do post some more! The Saudi Hawks look great. I saw them in 2019 and the shots coming out of Athens and Kecs really reenforce what I suspected two years ago: that their display sequence that year was massively substandard. Now I'm seeing photos from the past few days and c...

Re: Jersey International Air Display 2021

The RAF will provide a flypast by a P-8 Poseidon. I believe it will be the type's first appearance at a public airshow in RAF service. Edited to add: at the same time the airshow tweeted that they would be "having" an RAF A400M Atlas. I missed this announcement at the time I posted. I woul...

Re: Little Gransden Air & Car Show 2021

Little Gransden yesterday was very enjoyable, despite falling victim of the British airshow curse of having a thick layer of overcast during the show which broke into clear blue sky five minutes after it finished. Everyone always talks about the right-angled crowdline allowing for stunning topside p...

Little Gransden Air & Car Show 2021

Very much looking forward to trying the Little Gransden Air & Car Show for the first time tomorrow! I've heard many a good word about it and thought it's high time I try it out. I'm expecting it will be my last mainland UK show of the season. Sadly it's lost at least one of their headliners in t...

Re: IWM Duxford Airshows and Flying Events 2021

Today was certainly an interesting one. On paper, it was a line up of theme-defying mediocraty, but the brilliant weather and some surprise additions made it very enjoyable on the day. I would certainly question the wisdom of a 19 Squadron theme when only two aircraft (Spitfire and Mustang) could re...
