Well the old man's car has thrown a wobbly, so I can't go now

The Vulcan has eluded me again, hopefully be able to catch her at the October show now

Now that everyone is deciding not to go, we who do shall be blessed with fantastic sunny weather

[SuffolkBlue]

I can only make tomorrow, and as much as I would love to go, I’m just about fed-up of getting wet at air shows this year (including today).

According to MetGuess the rain is going to be worse tomorrow now but the winds are slightly stronger today, Will someone please make a decision for me please on what day to go

[CH2]

Arrived at 4.20 ish, rain had stopped and SUN IS OUT!!!! Not for long but just enough to see two DC3's arrive.

Forecast for Sunday is beginning to sound a little better

Yep I was there, was returning from the SE back to the East Mids on business, and oh dear the A14 was blocked, left turn Clyde!

[Monty]

weather was nice at first (sunny with clouds0 but VERY windy. later in the show the weather deteriorateed and during some of the displays visibility was nothing!! Display cancelled 30 mins from end and the spits, hunter meteor and a few others did not display. hoping to head back tomorrow to ccatch them (organisers sounded more optimistic for tomorrow).

[DonkeyB]

Given the forcasts and recent weather, I was pleased the rain held out as long as it did. Especially nice to see 558 in some sunshine.

Hoping to head back again tomorrow myself...

That can't have been taken this year, it looks as though it was a very dry (and dusty) day!

I think you're wrong.

I'm informed by a very reliable source that the man in the hat spent the first part of the show on the control tower and was later sighted behind the Airacobra before retiring to the pilot's tent to avoid the rain.

[MrAngry2]

I did notice a significant lack of Hat on the fuel bank yesterday, but at least I didnt have a completly hat less day:grin:

[stuart n]

I decided against going today and at the minute I think I've made the wrong decision. Nowhere near was windy here today although it is quite gloomy.

[MrAngry2]

True today looks, at the moment, the better out of thew two days im even starting to see a few breaks in the cloud,

[HuwJHopkins]

Wel 45 mins away from Duxford where I am its looking really peachy, nearly clear blue sky and minimal wind. Wether its different at Duxford to the north I don't know, but I'm guessing my descision to not go for the second day on the trot hasn't been a good one I've decided I'm emigrating...

[Rob Leigh]

Mr A, that's a member of the airshow flight control team. It looks like you're suffering from premature shutter release if you're taking shots like that.
