[capercaillie]

Pulling out all the stops with this one I see

No Hawker Nimrod again though

[HuwJHopkins]

Looks like another good line-up, a nice classic jet theme running through there; Hunter, 2x Gnats, Vampire and Strikemaster. A shame I'm on holiday for this one, and knowing my luck no doubt it'll be the only show this year where the Edwardians are able to come out to play

Is that MV22 Osprey a wind up though!!!

Cheers, Huw

[EMarsh]

MV22? How did that get in there?!

Should read "Osprey Display" - the birds, presumably.

[Mutley]

Sabre and Sea Vixen would be a nice addition

[Manonthefence]

The Sea Vixen would take up half the seasons budget for visiting acts. So unless a benefactor comes forward you wont see it at Old Warden.

[rdchawk]

I think there is a new display team called osprey team.

Yes they are from Swansea airport flying 4 Yaks

Bugger! Me and my dad watch them performing out over the estuary when we go down to visit family, It'd be fantastic to be able to see them at a show. Damn my holiday

Cheers, Huw

[st24]

Hmmmm... Still can't see the extra fivers worth in that lot. Anyone know which hunter???

[ChrisG]

Heard on the grapevine it's a T7, don't know who's though.

[Manonthefence]

Dont go then. It really is that simple.

[XH668]

Well ive been told were taking WZ507 (vampire t.11) along which doesnt appear to be on that list

It's on between the Shuttlewuffe and the Wasp.

Quite gutted I'm on holiday for this show, plenty of quality visiting classic jets and the first chance to see the FW44 this year. At least I'll have the photographs to enjoy once I get back!

[SEMAE]

With a Hunter, two Gnats, a Strikemaster and a Vampire it is definitely worth £25.00.

[AMB]

Hmmmm... Still can't see the extra fivers worth in that lot.

Maybe they will put it towards the Sea Vixen appearing?

Presume the Demon will replace the Hind on the list?

Forecast looking promising for Sunday

[Rob Leigh]

I can confirm that the Hawker Demon will be displaying on Sunday, the paperwork's now complete.

ST24, this news alone should have you fumbling for that extra fiver.

[EMarsh]

Excellent news, gutted that it's the only Old Warden show I can't get to!

Any chance we could have it display at the August 'evening' show too?

I'm photocopying one as I type!! Great stuff.

[LN Strike Eagle]

Hmmm, considering this one. Ticket includes admision to the gardens and birds of prey centre, and the line up and forecast both look good....

[jimbob1194]

I really want to go,but can't because im off to London to watch Arsenal play in the Emirates cup, Im not even an Arsenal fan . I haven't been to Old Warden since 2005, want to go back this year on a display day, but everytime there is a display i am always booked for the day. I do miss the classic grass runway of the Shuttleworth Collection.
hope you all enjoy it

[LN Strike Eagle]

Quite fancy this one then. Never been to OW before. Any tips for where to view from on the crowdline? What time should I arrive? How long is the flying display, etc.

[stevieb]

Dan, Flying usually starts at 2.00pm. You might want to get there early if you want to have a look around the birds of prey, and Swiss garden, as it looks as if it might be busy tomorrow. You can pay £5 (I think) to have a half hour flightline tour. As to where to stand take your pick really, most spots are pretty good. We're going tomorrow, party rings on standby! Look forward to seeing you tomorrow.

[LN Strike Eagle]

Cool! Not 100% sure if I'll be going yet, but it's quite likely.
