Glad to see all of them displays confirmed, shame blades won't be there this year, but really good to see the Albatross making an appearance, same with the Spitfire V, A return for the Strikemaster as well is amazing.

Long range forecast isn’t brilliant.

Let’s hope these “drought conditions” we are having clears up and it stops raining for that weekend.

Just a thought, if The Red Arrows are flying from Scampton and displaying before landing and nightstopping, does that mean they will all display with a Blue in the other seat on the Saturday or will the Blues travel in by road or something ?
