It has since been updated to show as a Seafire display - it was excellent at Race Day last year.

They've nearly 5 weeks after the Proms to announce visitors.

Hoping if the Tempest gets back into the air that'll be down to visit.

Or maybe Electra Junior G-AFTL after it cancelled its appearance at the Family Airshow earlier this month?

Race Day last year was great (a pleasant surprise after repeatedly hearing it was one of the worse ones) - Seafire, Fury ISS & Spitfire PRXI particular highlights and even the yellow Slingsby T6 Kite VD218 was something a little different.

Lets see what the next few weeks bring...

I go to the race day every year I think it’s fantastic and a nice mix of vehicles. It closes the season nicely for me
