On a separate issue I note the Swiss Hornet is confirmed flying for Scottish airshow. Just checked the confirmed list by Boff for RIAT and it seems to be lagging behind Cosford and Yeovilton albeit they are a couple of weeks earlier. I'm wondering whether harkins might be right and this may not live up to expectations despite the amazing ticket sales already. Come on DBH, throw us a bone, let's have some flying updates and start getting excited.
Come on, January has only just started! With the majority of foreign air arms yet to work through their ratification process to then confirm what their support to any shows will look like then its hardly a case of us "throwing you a bone". Irrespective of what Cosford/Yeovilton/Scottish Air Show are putting out most Air Arms are only just starting to pick up after the Christmas & New Year break. I'll repeat that we don't announce anything until we have a formal notification from the respective nations; even then that is subject to change and in some cases sooner than we would like!
