No Mustangs though, think its the first Duxford show this year without any.

Slight thread drift but just seen on local news that Lotus Renault are F1 testing at Duxford today. Thursday. :wat:

Shame the C-27 is only static, I'd like to see it display, it would also be nice to see a few more of the Duxford aircraft out on static display.

Hi there,

I am getting the train from liverpool lime street to london euston then Kings Cross to cambridge to catch the bus to the airshow.
Just wondering how long does it take to get from london euston to kings cross on the tube also what line on the tube do I need to
catch Also I need to get the tube from finsbury park to london euston on the way back from cambridge just wondering how long does that take on the tube ?. Any info and help would be appreciated

Hi Eddie

Euston to Kings Cross is the Northern Line but its only about a 5 -10 min walk as the stations are pretty much next to each other. Finsbury Park to Euston you need to catch Piccadilly Line from Finsbury Pk to Kings Cross and either Northern line or short walk to Euston. Its about 15 mins Finsbury Pk to Kings Cross.

Single F-15 has just gone over Bury St. Edmunds heading in the direction of Duxford.

A statement has been released on the Duxford website stating that the Reds will not be displaying this weekend.

I think some of you might like the F-15 Demo. Having got his bearings and reference points today he might give it some wellie tomorrow. A bit tame today but then again the F-15 driver probably hasn't display in such a small bit of air space before. :biggrin:

Have the aerostars taken the chop then?

Sunday is looking the better day participant wise!

Post by **DamienB** » Thu 01 Sep 2011, 5:37 pm

The Aerostars are still on the list. Miss D does tend to swing Sunday as being the better day but Saturday's weather is looking better...

There was a rumour at Duxford that Spitfire Mk I P9374/G-MKIA (the one with the black/white undersides) would fly today. Apparently it has this evening. Hopefully could see it flying tomorrow.
