This Friday

Post by Blackbird »

In view of the likely weather for Saturday, I'm thinking about going to Duxford on Friday.

How much am I likely to see? How much practice flying, and what sort of access to static is possible? I assume there won't be an equivalent to the "flightline walk"?

Early answers appreciated as I need to make arrangements at work later today.

TIA

Andy

I went last year and there was quite a bit of flying but I guess it depends who needs to fly practice displays and who hasn't flown in the rest of the week. As said in the other posts most of the overseas stuff is coming in today, whether that means they just come in today and practice tomorrow I hope so as I'm going tomorrow too lol

After some late changes to our bookings I too am doing Leg Ends on the Friday this year, via Mildy for a spot of Eagle burner action :drool: I hope

It's normal museum times and prices and yes, there is no flightline walk.

In the past, Friday has generally been busy flying wise.
