Grace spitfire and Dakota 'drag em oot' now both confirmed on the web site both landing on the grass strip ! dakota should be a good watch as its not the biggest landing strip

This show is looking like a highlight for me this year. Looks promising.

Thanks Stuart. So I'm guessing that it's an airfield rather then a Best Western Hotel?!

With stuff already quoted as "landing on the grass strip", I would rather hope so!

The more I read this, the more I am tempted. Unfortunately it clashes with the Duxford Show, which I always enjoy, so decisions will have to be made!!

The Victory Show is so much more than just an airshow - treat the aerial bits as a bonus on top of a superb day out.

[hillbilly]

Posted on facebook today, next years show will be a 3 day event......as its got to big to be a 2 day event.

[hillbilly]

Gloster Meteor T7 displaying now too.

Had confirmation that this is not displaying maybe next year....

[Bronco]

Any chance of a complete list of aircraft?

[hillbilly]

This is all I have so far, info from their website and from their facebook page, could be more but the website hasn't been updated for a while most info comes from facebook when in contact with the organiser's. looking at the list it's going to be the largest air display they have done so far.

most are operating from their landing strip weather permitting.

Grace Spitfire
AT6 Texan
P51 Janie
P51 Marinell
Hurricane Mk1 R4118
TF51 Miss Velma
Spitfire MkVb EP120
C47 Drag um oot
DC3
H75 Hawk
P40B
P40K
Corsair
BBMF Spitfire Mk5 (Sunday only)
ME108
TRIG Display Team

Along with all the WWII re-enactors and camps, and the large re-enactment battle this so much more than an airshow ...... it's not to be missed.

[hillbilly]

Update today

Vulcan displaying on Sunday .............

It's a must for sure!!! Excellent line up and great day out. Deserves good weather.
