Very nice Beachy Head flypast by the Lancaster and Typhoon, a rare treat for the photographers up there.

Re: Eastbourne 2023

Some aircraft do swing by Beachy and give good views like the BBMF and The Reds, but generally most aircraft don't come as close as in past times, also I noticed today large areas from Beachy down towards Eastbourne have been fenced off and filled with ponies so a few good viewing spots have been lo...

Re: Eastbourne 22

I thought we might get a shortened display from the Typhoon because of the Spitfire combo, but I was pleased to see a full display from the Typhoon display team, and some nice vapour on the wings, as the jet turned hard over the sea 👍

Staging out of Gatwick is a rather strange choice if true.
Good to hear there is still hope, I'm thinking Farnborough would be a better choice.

An impressive sight and sound over Storrington, nice seeing the residents from the ex RAFA care home watching from their patio.

Re: South Coast Flypast Sunday 14th August

Rumour control says aircraft around Worthing area between 14:10 to 14:40, seems they are not flying to seaford anymore, just to Storrington then Worthing and back Goodwood, so my idea of watching bulldogs chasing chipmunks at the Hummingbird restaurant, at Shoreham airport has gone out the window 😄

Re: Will air shows be cancelled because of coronavirus

I think iy will all depend on how the virus spreads once the weather (hopefully) get warmer? I just hope shows have some sort of insurance in place? The virus has the ability to wipe out so many types of outdoor events and companies/ events that could not come back from a uninsured cancelation. I t...

Re: Eastbourne Airborne 2019

Did anything fly past Beachy Head? Is it likely to? CS Aircraft were pretty far from Beachy today, it might just have been because of high winds, the lower cliffs towards Eastbourne, gave good views today. There was a nice blast of flares as the Breitling jets flew in from the sea, towards the crow...
