The Demon doesn't look airworthy at present. I suppose, and this is pure speculation, it may be readied in time for the show and added to the list. If not, I'm sure there'll be other opportunities to see it throughout the rest of the year. Not like there are a shortage of OW shows!
Should be doing 8-10 OW shows this year myself, all things being equal.

Just what I thought. As soon as they advertise the Hind and Demon in the air together, I'll be there!
The programme has been revised and now includes the Hind. As per my previous post, I understand the Demon is still undergoing maintenance. A guy I spoke to during the training week said the engineering team's efforts were concentrated on getting several other aircraft ready for the coming season, including the Lysander and Hind - which are both on the Spring show list. I'm sure the Demon will join them before long.

The weather is beginning to look a little more positive for tomorrow. Metchech and the BBC website are both saying rain in the morning with it clearing to sunny intervals by 1pm. UKweather seem to be saying all day rain however. Fingers crossed!
