Seafire and Comet props definitely look unnatural to me - my initial thought would be the rolling shutter (though I don't use a mirrorless setup myself) - perhaps worth double checking all your settings again with the manual.

PDA from the Dak carries over to the Lanc AFAIK.

I have no doubts the Lancaster will be ready by May as it spent most of 2021 on the ground so hopefully it won’t take much to have it ready for the 2022 season.

Probably reading too much into it, but the tour website has some event timings which look like they’re from the planned show at Sywell last year i.e. the Blades evening display and evening entertainment until the site closes at 10pm.

Good to see PT462 out and about already.

Sorry I’m a bit late to the party! I haven’t posted on here for a while but here we are, a chance to look back at 2021 which luckily gave us a pretty full calendar of events. After 2020, I wanted to make the most of the 2021 airshow season so I decided to opt into IWM membership and it turned out to...

But important to note there’s no ‘full’ airshow in May and it’s a Flying Day instead so free for members

Now allowing pedestrians for the drive-in shows. However, there is a new pricing structure which is essentially another increase if you’re coming by car with more than 1 person. It’s now £10 for a 5x5m space and each person must have an airshow ticket - £26 (£34 after discounted price ends in Februa...

Lanc had a hydraulics issue recently I believe. No idea if it’s been fixed, but it’s appearance at Guersney airshow was cancelled and it was just the pair of fighters displaying.

It’s a bonkers request for any event in this country to make. Reminds me of Radom airshow where they were confiscating bottles of water upon entry ...

Is there a reason for them requesting you buy food on-site? Very odd

Good to hear they’re very much hoping to stage an airshow next year and keep FL going.

Interesting news today that Aero Legends are going ahead with their airshow at Headcorn. Part of me feels that if Duxford really wanted to host this show, they could’ve used the showcase days as trial runs, set up cones, paint lines for social distancing etc but from what I read, there was nothing.

NYK and Rapide MM? Am I missing something, what are they, and the NYK must be so interesting it's listed twice?

On the whole a little bit underwhelming if that's the final list, but still potentially worth the trip for the DH84 which I've yet to see.

And the Stieglitz - was looking forward to that, was a nice little display at the Military show last year.

The tweet was promptly removed yesterday I believe. Tried to find it to look through some of the comments but it was gone.

I've enjoyed a few Duxford shows from the M11 end ever since the tank bank was closed but I assume the display line will have to be pushed further out now. Unless they can get away with it? Doesn't the tank bank remain open during practice displays etc before airshow days?

I've been meaning to attend this show for a couple of years now but it's always clashed with something else. Looking forward to attending this year all being well. Hopefully the BBMF fighters operate from Headcorn like in the past.

If it is all down to money, then I assume Duxford will simply see this as an opportunity to take over that Legends weekend in July and organise another generic show with some Spitfires, Red Arrows and Typhoon and keep 100% of the profits. Good luck to TFC and hopefully they'll be able to find a suit...

With the public Grandstand gone from this years show, where would be the best place to go on the airfield? I've heard a few say down towards the tank hangar at the bottom of the airfield in the past but was thinking about somewhere close to the American hangar. Either far end of the airfield will b...

Considering their previous photo days with Darren Harbar were around the £150 mark for one aircraft and one reenactor, this looks like pretty good value for money :rofl: Honestly, the aircraft line-up is pretty exciting as it's not often you get a chance to see a Blenheim/Lysander/Fiat CR42 after da...

https://www.iwm.org.uk/airshows/faqs/covid-19 Detailed information, regarding the social distancing measures. I admire their optimism, but I’m honestly not sure what IWM are trying to achieve here? Are they trying to stay ahead of the game? Yes, we all want airshows to resume, but we hardly know wh...

Good to see they expect PL983 to be back after her mishap last year.

I can say I wholeheartedly agree, I've got 2 Hahnel batteries which seem to last longer than my Canon ones.

No clash with RIAT! Has common sense finally prevailed or is it just because Farnborough have scrapped their public airshow?

Saw a recent post from BGHH on Facebook saying expect to see some flying from their 109 next year...

Hopefully the May show is slightly more inspiring next year.
