Re: Airshow melancholy.
Did not get to a show this year. Odd feeling really. First shows were Air Fetes mid 80s. Let's hope some can take place next year, chances look better than they did 6 months ago.

Re: 2021 Airshows
I fully agree that the govt set small lockdowns really only for the purpose of keeping spirits of the public higher. After all, if the first lockdown was 3 months why suddenly is this new one just one? They don't know of course. No-one does. 2 Dec is more palatable that's all. As for airshows, I too...

Re: Aero Legends 80th Anniversary Battle of Britain Airshow
Could be one of those days of 2 halves weather wise today, don't write it off too fast, we have all seen them in the past. Wind speeds look a bit lively though.

Re: Aero Legends 80th Anniversary Battle of Britain Airshow
This seems badly worded, I would guess they don't want people bringing alcohol rather than food, that does sound totally odd

We had the discussions in June and ended it there looking at the thread, believe it was AndyXH558 who resurrected the sniping which I feel is a bit unfair, so I replied, no big deal. As stated, this forum needs all the arguing/any comments at all it can muster at the moment, perhaps this should be t...

And here we go again with the insults of Gerry. Anyone bringing aviation to thousands of viewers is ok by me, and if you hate his content don't watch. He is a personality and as a broadcaster is head and shoulders above any other aviation channel streaming from airports and bases. He makes the strea...

Re: Battle of Britain Airshow 2020 - 18th-20th September.
Agree. Credit to Duxford for trying, but the OW model of drive in was always a better bet. Conventional shows just will not happen this year imho, sadly Headcorn included (and I was tempted by that)
