Have heard rumours about P de F that are not good :sad:

Where's this rumour coming from and what's the rumoured reason for pulling out? I see it's still on their own calendar (although I'm not reading too much into that...)

I saw it mentioned by the organizer of the airshow of Lens (16 September) on Facebook. PAF will now apparently display there on 15 September late afternoon instead of at Leuchars.

Who's to say they're not on early at Leuchars and flying down there. They left mid-afternoon last year...

Because PAF don't display twice in one day and he said their display at Leuchars was cancelled. I hope for Leuchars the info is incorrect.

Quick get the Korean Black Eagles back over, land the Korean Cargo 747s to land at Prestwick assemble there and fly over to Leuchars, we really need another Display Team..

Be nice if Spanish AF team or Turkish Stars were invited. Unlikely I know but still.

Especially because the Spanish military have no demos whatsoever this year due to cutbacks, not even at their own airshows.

seems very disappointing if the pof have cancelled, poor show all round.
without them the flying display seems a bit bland we need another couple of goodies i think.
well done on the static,( if all turn up that is )

So, the Reds can display as many as 3 times in a day (depending on venues) and the PdF can only display ONCE?? WTH??

Thats a full seven days if you ask me (weak for those not tracking :lol: )

The Meteor is a great addition! Though it is a shame about the PDF. What are the chances of the Swedish Historic flight putting in an appearance with the Viggen and Tunnan seeing as they are attending the Jersey show on the 13th? http://www.jerseyairdisplay.org.uk/news/index.php

Pretty sure the Viggen is off to Sanicole. :sad:

It really is an absolute swine of a clash.

Very strange that you would display on a day that's not part of the actual show!?

I'm sure that if the PdF have had to cancel then the Airshow office will hopefully be doing everything they can to try and get something in their place if they can.

i appreciate that unknown 74, am sure they will try and bring something in, but dont hold your breath. if the likes of cosford is matching our show then maybe its time to call it a day, i have been a regualar for many years, and this show is def on its last legs am afraid, sorry to be downbeat, but it just needs that extra sparlkle that you get at other shows.


why has sanilcole secured everything,

As far as i am aware regarding Pdef, they arrive 14th, display 15th leave straight after dislplay
on the 15th, then they display Lens on the 16th simples, what's the panic or have i missed something :confused:
All the best Dougie :biggrin:
