Post by Hitchensfan »

Sadly I can only make Friday. Hoping to take my 13 year along.... Can anyone describe what we may see ? Is there a listing published for the air display ? thanks

See those listed as flying, and as being on display on Friday, and there will be your flying display :)

Friday is a great day, and a good introduction for the teen. It's less crowded, and you'll get better access to the static's. You'll generally see more flying than what's published if I recall correctly.
You'll both have a great time without doubt.

They say they are close to selling out Friday, does anyone know just how many people that is?

They only have a much reduced crowd on Fri - I seem to remember seeing a figure of around 35k somewhere before. Always seems more than that but still more room and less hectic than a full show day.

Where's that? They have been telling about an almost sell-out on Sunday for some days, never anything about Friday.
A weather forecast is a forecast and just that
