More space for crowds at airshows and a better view?

Vaccine and rapid testing should be enough to fix things for next summer

Good news indeed if it does actually happen? If Duxford do decide to hi-jack the weekend I think the actual line up will be the clincher for me with Duxford getting the extra points simply for its location and tradition. Still, at least it doesn't clash with RIAT (if even that goes ahead) Only time...

Announcement is live on their Facebook page now - it's Sywell Aerodrome

He does get a massive audience and viewing numbers though

If you'd like to see some Shuttleworth action then I've made one of our films from the Collection available to view FREE for the next couple of days https://wingstv.uscreen.io/programs/shu ... ryId=25791

The International Boat show at Southampton was Covid Secure: The show, due to take place from 11-20 September 2020, was set to open on Friday following extensive work in collaboration with Southampton City Council to ensure that the existing Public Health England Covid-19 secure requirements were m...

I believe the tweet from the museum "curator" has now been removed

And now we have the news Legends is no more.........:0(

at Duxford

This is all that I can find at the moment: https://www.iwm.org.uk/airshows/faqs/covid-19 . It will be interesting to see how the Showcase Days in August work to start to see how they might manage the full show. Crowd limit for the Battle of Britain airshow is 15,000 per day. Saturday is nearly sold...

Really considering going but i'm quite eager to know how the social distancing will work, after attending Shuttleworth i just can't see it being anything like that..

I'm interested in this too, have they mentioned anything yet?

Had ground running engines before at Duxford (Legends)...

Maybe the idea is to blow any Covid away from the crowds...

Interesting and a good number of responses

Brilliant news and great innovation from Shuttleworth - I'll be interested to see what duxford do for the September show

The Lightning Tree - Follyfoot TV theme by the Settlers. Yep, I am ancient!

Me too - I can remember the song!

If I try and post a Youtube Video link I get this error message when I preview the post "You cannot use certain BBCodes: media"

This gives me an idea, how about a livestream next week, play some RIAT arrivals footage first, then run the full show and then some departures footage afterwards, might be an interesting way to fill an afternoon? Could possibly do it with the 2012 show Isn't 2012 the one with the Black Eagles. The...

Yes, the "free" offer was only for Easter weekend - sorry.

If you've got a spare couple of hours this easter weekend then I've made the full official film of the 2014 Flying Legends Airshow free to view on my aviation channel. *** UPDATE - OFFER HAS NOW EXPIRED*** https://wingstv.uscreen.io/programs/flying-legends-airshow-2014-uscreenmp4-b7b1a9?categoryId=2...

Expect to see more of this sort of thing over the next few weeks and months.

It's not so much picture "quality" it's more about definition. Yesterday is only an SD channel not HD which is basically the difference between DVD and Blu-ray!

I enjoyed it. I'm pleased programmes like this get made. Shame it is on such a low-def, low bit rate, fuzz-o-vision channel though... (at least on Sky anyway). I thought it was very well done but agree on the picture quality of the channel! I'm assuming there's an HD version of the show that might ...
