8th-9th August this year.
Was a great little show last year, but there's no Facebook presence (that I can find anyway) and only the BBMF listed on the website. Anyone have any info?

From the website, it says a two hour display including the Huey and a Spitfire with lots more to be announced.

Re: Damyns Hall
Thanks for the link Dan, am undecided on this one. It's a shame the site is not updated that often.
Re: Damyns Hall
Huey has cancelled, according to Facebook:
We're very sad to have to announce that the Huey will not be flying this weekend as originally planned. After the tragic loss of Kevin Whyman last weekend at CarFest, the Huey pilots are concentrating on supporting Kevin's family through this difficult time.
We hope everyone will understand that this is a very difficult time for the families involved and we fully support and
understand their decision.
The rest of the flying programme will remain unaffected.

Re: Damyns Hall
The BBMF Dakota has withdrawn due to engine trouble. It looks like her slot will be filled on Saturday by "Sally B" (subject to final confirmation.)
Re: Damyns Hall
confirmed
Re: Damyns Hall
I usually go to this, however the web page and Facebook doesn't tell you a lot, and they aren't specific about all that will be there.
The lineup seems pretty much the same each year, (although it looks a bit lacking this year) so probably won't bother going.

A nice little show today. Mike Pickin aeros in cap 232 were excellent, Tony Richards in a Broussard was a nice rarity and first time I have seen one display. Pete Holloway amazing as usual in Storch. Pete Kynsey brought the spit in from BHHH, in the absence of Dan G I assume. But display of the day went to Sally B, she was displayed beautifully in the blue skies. Nice and close and very spirited. Best I have ever seen from her I think, and I have done pretty much all DX shows over past 15 years. Mark Fitzgerald cancelled his Huey display for obvious reasons. Big thanks to the team at Headcorn headed by Richard Pickin for a nice afternoon at Damyns Hall

Re: Damyns Hall
Sally-B was a late addition for today and the limited crew at Duxford did well to get it ready for the afternoon.
