I think it would be so nice to get the Sea Vixen added to that line-up and have a classic jet formation with the Sabre.
Or thrown in the Vampire and a Hunter for extra woah factor!

[JBartlett]

looks a good show cant wait to see the two RNHF sea Furys together also lets hope they get the F16 & Sea Vixen ??

F-4 Phantoms first went into service into 1960 and played a crucial part in the Vietnam conflict, not Korea.

What chance Duxford booking the Sea Vixen for this show?

[jaguarfarewellday]

possible T2 Hawk 19 Sqn on static.

Belgian F-16 would be a corking idea .

[lanemiker]

Wish that Meier Motors would bring back their F4U-5N Corsair that they had at Flying Legends. It would be nice to have her for the show as this aircraft actually flew and saw combat with VMF(N)-513 during the Korean Confilct.

Are there any show updates to come? it just need's a couple of gems methinks... F16 (belgian) meteor,Team viper,Sea Vixen etc etc

[Dragon Rapide]

Part of the problem might be that a number of the warbirds we would lkime to see have been put to bed for the Winter by mid-October. Hopefully not but get your hopes up too high.......

Fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! F16

[DeanW]

Plenty of highlights in there - F86, Sea Furys, Skyradier, F16, Meteor. Looks like a strong way to end the season.

[Dragon Rapide]

I agree - it's looking very tasty, indeed!! Best get there early to strap your seat to the fence!! (See separate topic!!)

[timuss]

That does look rather tasty may extend my season for this then after all.

James

[PeterR]

5x Furies and an F-16! Get in

[PChaplin]

Sounds good, best i get down there tomorrow and tie my chair and stepladder to the fence in preparation

[XH668]

5x Furies

Dont you mean 3?

[SuffolkBlue]

The Autumn Show has really come into its own within the last 4 / 5 years or so. It always seemed to have that “end of season feeling”, with the airshow season petering out, but it now makes for an excellent show.

[F-86]

5x Furies and an F-16! Get in

Easy mistake to make with the way it is written, It is 3x Sea Fury.

But will VR930 be there? Has it even got it's engine back yet?
