*Seems like an odd place to go, as there's no airshow there. Last time the Reds went to Menorca it was for a British Naval Hospital anniversary.
**Could be the Monaco Airshow? Such an event has been held before, but it's not a big show by any means, and the Reds choosing to go to a country that has no air force (or, indeed, an airport!) is just... odd.
All in all, a very disappointing list of overseas events. Although they have managed clashes in British shows very well this year - as far as I can see, no ticketed airshows have been put in the awkward position of only getting the Reds on certain days. And it's good to see that, with the exception of Farnborough, they're not missing any big shows this year like Yeovilton.
