I've been twice - Air Fete '97 and 2001 - the second time they had 2 F-177A Nighthawks (1 static and one flying), an amazing display by a B-1B Lancer, I got to walk through the cargo bay of a C-5 Galaxy and a B-2 Spirit did a flyby escorted 'just in case' by two F-15s - I've got a pretty good shot of it flying over, must scan it in sometime...
Sadly I don't think there'll be another one
ive only been to one air show
It was pretty carp. The only Fighter jet a Trainer from the czech republic
And the only WW2 Air craft that were flying were Chinese Trainers and an American Navy plan which i think was a trainer aswell.
There were some of those Duel layer wing WW1 plans though

I went to the one that had the first flight of the B2 in this country. Was supported by 2 F16s (If I remember rightly, may have been F15s), so you couldn't hear its engine :/ It didn't land either. Was a good show - we camped under the flightpath for the runway and was woken up by Air Force One landing on the Saturday morning!!!
/edit - just read JonnyTs post - must have been the same show!!! F15s then. I have some pics on film of it.
