Has anyone been since the new CCA regulations? Used to have a pretty similar feel to Shuttleworth with its dogleg display line. Not been since the new regulations though.

Looks like an East west runway. Are the crowd on the south side (so sun behind?).

Yes, but the display flying takes place primarily to the west parallel to the flightline, so you are shooting into the light as the day goes on.

Does anyone know where the L-29 will be flying out of, for this show. I understand it's owned by Mark Jefferies but I don't know where he has it based.

Thanks for that, I stand corrected cheers. Was hoping that it was flying out of Duxford for this show.

I was looking forward to going to this show, but the weather forecast is not looking good now for the flying :sad:

Same here as never been before, but forecast looks awful. Was hoping to catch my first glimpse of Nellie.
