The Festival of Flight returns in 2025 and whilst Shuttleworth are yet to announce any participants for next year's shows, the German Flying Legends Gmbh on their website list F4U Corsair D-FCOR as a participant.
Having appeared on static display at RIAT this year, it hasn't performed a flying display at a UK show since Flying Legends 2015 with a former owner.
Hopefully it'll be confirmed by Shuttleworth in due course...

It would be wonderful if Mike Carlson's Fokker pair (D.VII & DR.1) were to put in am appearance? They performed a splendid show at Sywell last Summer.

Got to hand it to Shuttleworth this year for booking some really interesting and different participants.
