Didn't something similar happen to Glacier Girl more recently? Or have I made that up?!
Quite right, and it was my error - I meant 2007. Easy mistake to make...
There was a Mk.26 Spitfire booked for Waddington once, I'm pretty sure that cancelled. Which reminds me, they scrubbed a Dave Southwood Hunter display for a dire UAV demo. Literally the worst "act" I've seen at an airshow.
CP-140 at Duxford September 2000 is another.
The Czechs (Gripen, Hind & L-159) cancelling Biggin to do, I think, Zeltweg. Can't say I blame them, Bromley is hardly Salzburg... The Kiwi 757 was also down for that show for a while, wasn't it?
Anyone remember the four He111s/CASAs due at RIAT 2000?! I'd love to know the backstory to that one.
All but 2/3 European visitors at Legends 2014...
