Definitely? Or just an educated guess?

Re: Bournemouth Air Festival 2018
For anyone planning on going to this by train South Western Railway (think that's the current name anyway) are planning a strike on the Friday and Saturday.

Re: Bournemouth Air Festival 2018
Is there any truth in the rumour that this could be the last ever UK appearance of the Breitling Jet Team ? That their contract with Breitling is due to expire at the end of the year and they will go the same way as the DC3, Connie and Wing Walkers?

Re: Bournemouth Air Festival 2018
Think it'll be down to the weather, whether I go to this one.
Wouldn't mind seeing the Breitlings, but only if there's a decent blue sky for them to perform in.

Re: Bournemouth Air Festival 2018
There is a NOTAM out tommorrow presumably for a practice display from the Breitling team. Anyone know any exact timings? Thanks.
Re: Bournemouth Air Festival 2018
Does anyone know which evenings the Breitling Team are performing the dusk display? I can't seem to see the info on the website.
Thanks
Thanks

Re: Bournemouth Air Festival 2018
Just been confirmed that a Tornado will be opening the festival at 2:30 today (Friday). It may just be a run past, no further details given) but at least something will be making some nice noise today.
EDIT Apparently it will just be a flypast with the Tornado at 1000ft, so not much to get excited about!
Does anybody know if the Breitling Jet Team will be using flares for the dusk show?

Did the tonka flypast happen? Anything special or a damp squib?
Re: Bournemouth Air Festival 2018
Yes there was a tonka flypast; saw it on the live feed so not sure about your other question, it immediately gave way to the Spitfire;
any idea if it's due tomorrow? planning to be there

Re: Bournemouth Air Festival 2018
Is the Breitling team based at Hurn for the airshow days, or are they flying in each day? Would be good to see them take off and land.

I believe they are due to land at Bournemouth at 11:00 today and will be there for the weekend!

Thank you. Will pop down if I can. The family want to see the Red Arrows later as they always give a good flypast when they land.
Re: Bournemouth Air Festival 2018
BJT are using flares on last break one for the cameras as I missed it!

Live feed is appalling
Re: Bournemouth Air Festival 2018
One of the people from the Gravity Jet Suit Display Demonstration, landed in the sea mid-display, no injuries.

Re: Bournemouth Air Festival 2018
Does anyone have the radio frequencies for the different aircraft flying or is there just one general frequency being used please?
Re: Bournemouth Air Festival 2018
Gravity went in the water again and have cancelled for the rest of the show. Shame as it is a fantastic design and I was looking forward to seeing it in action. Hopefully they'll bounce back quickly.
