The correct order as i have it is:
Saab 105 Austrian AF
C-27J Spartan AMI
F-16AM Belgian AC
S-76C(Arrival of the Duke of Kent)
6 Hunters depart
Tornado IDS AMI
Hunter Flypast/display
F-16C SoloTurk
Lancaster B.III (Conditions got quite bad when this was on)
JAS-39C Gripen Swedish Air Force
Saudi Hawks
AH-64D Apache RNLAF
SF-260D x 4 'Red Devils' Belgian AC
Tutor T.1
Tucano T.1
Spitfire IX and P-51D Mustang OFMC
Balbo
Chinook HC.2
Royal Jordanian Falcons
Apache AH.1
A-10C Thunderbolt II
Hawk T.1A departs
F-16AM RNLAF
Hawk T.1A
Spitfire IIa Hurricane IIc BBMF
Tornado GR4 x 2 Role Demo
Vulcan B.2 (Most broing display i have seen from TVOC by a long margin)
RAFAT Red Arrows
Rafale C French AF
F-16AM Royal Danish AF
Il Frecce Tricolori
Typhoon IPA5 BAE
Breitling Wing Walkers and Jet Team
German AF A319 landed shortly after the end of the display.

Only Cancellations were the Patrulla Aguila and the RNHF Swordfish.

I think thats about accurate, i did have a toilet break when the Tucano was on, which i think was right before the Balbo, and before the Chinook i went to get lunch, which by the way was one of the best fish and chips ive had in recent years, much better than the one i had from Harry Ramsdens in Bournemouth on thursday, cheaper too!!

That list is as I remember it too, and Harry Ramsdens fish and chips are not as good as they think they are! my local chippy is superior to them, and the fish and chips you can get at the food area in Merry Hill shopping mall near Dudley is excellent! oh yes I forgot :grin: hope you did'nt miss the Chinook? that was by far the best display by that beastie ever, and left me quite :dizzy: :clap:

Many, Many Thanks to you A40-BP, I am still tingling from an excellent day at Fairford, I'm glad the choice of Sunday over Saturday was made as there was 10 superb hours of flying without the weather forcing too many changes, my friend went on the Saturday and got to see much less.
