Re: Military Pageant - 1st July
There's an evening show on the 16th so I suppose we'll know then.
My worry is more about what time the P-47 will be on, considering the majority of the show will be the more wind-dependant WWI types.

There has been a tendency this year to start the show with star items. No problem at the evening displays of course, but not ideal for lighting at the main shows.

Re: Military Pageant - 1st July
I know I was one of the first to bemoan the lack of "bendage" at the last show but either way the sight and sound of a Jug tearing up Old Warden is too exciting a prospect to miss....
You caaan't trust the system... Maaan!
Re: Military Pageant - 1st July
Fingers crossed that the Lanc is on about 16:00 then with the P-47 after it. Please don't put them on first Shuttleworth!

Re: Military Pageant - 1st July
The BBMF are always hard times supplied by them to fit into their other commitments that day.

Surely that depends on how early the bookings are done for that day and what else they have on? Anyway the main aircraft I want good pictures of is the P-47.

Re: Military Pageant - 1st July
Lancaster, according to BBMF website is due at Swansea at 14:00, so assume it will do a flypast as it transits back home...

Re: Military Pageant - 1st July
OK didn’t realise the Lanc is only a flypast, as it is not mentioned on the list.
Re: Military Pageant - 1st July
BBMF usually post their coming weekends display times on their Facebook page on a thursday or friday if thats any use .
Re: Military Pageant - 1st July
I'd need to know if they are flying the usual (up to now) 'round the bend' routine before I go all that way again.

Re: Military Pageant - 1st July
Me too, and I'll also probably try and use all forms of social media to ask if there's any idea what time the Thunderbolt will display
Re: Military Pageant - 1st July
Yeah, I would certainly love to see the P-47!

Rat's! Just been told that I have to attend a 'Naming' (whatever that is?) together with my camera on Sunday.

Re: Military Pageant - 1st July
BBC predicting 15mph winds and sun for Sunday, ww1 stuff will not be flying if that the case half the shows participants will disappear going to wait to see if it improves.

It's still too far away to get an accurate prediction, we probably won't really know until the night before.
15mph wouldn't necessarily rule out the WW1 stuff, it depends more on the direction of the wind. However, a wind speed of 15mph would rule out the Edwardians whatever direction it's blowing from.
Re: Military Pageant - 1st July
Yep i'm waiting however may get the GWDT as they seem to be able to fly in higher winds

Re: Military Pageant - 1st July
If the time slot for the P-47 is confirmed, and is favourable (so, 4pm or later), I might well be tempted by this one.

Its looking like an Easterly but the light stuff can still use the cross runway..

Re: Military Pageant - 1st July
Latest forecast has the cloud burning back much earlier now... Gonna be a hot one folks (again!) Really hope the catering is up to speed and they don't sell out of Soleros even before I get there...!
