Seven warbirds doing their power checks on the taxiway at the LWH end. You could almost touch them.
They’re now beating up the airfield in a tail chase. It sounds incredible.

Sounds great. Glad you're having a good time.
Will be there on Sunday... hopefully the rain will not scupper my plans!

If we could just have the Lysander to fly, my day will be complete.

Does anyone think there might be a risk that some stuff won't fly tomorrow due to strong crosswinds?

Sounds like today was well worth the trip to Dux?
Re: Duxford Battle of Britain Airshow 2019
Yep one of the best days I've had here! Tankbank open as well!

Seemed a bit of a slow start to the day, but once lunch was out the way things really got going!
Awesome day!
Poor chap in the tower really had his work cut out!
