Folkestone 2018

Post by starbuck »

Looks like the airshow may be back on again although with its recent rocky past probably best just to pencil the dates on the calendar for the time being.

I did wonder why the Red Arrows were in Folkestone, couldn't see any events for that day.

Looks very much like a Cowes or Lyme Regis type event this year, rather than a full air show. It will be interesting to see if the crowds are similar to previous years.

I read last week that plans for a 2019 full show are gathering pace.
