I cough up for a grandstand ticket to get a decent view.

Planning on leaving Brighton at 3am on Sunday :eek:

Weather is looking 50/50 at the moment.,

The Oasis Boeing 747 strutting it's stuff should be fun (Sunday only). As also should the ThunderBirds, Tornado's , Typhoons etc etc.

And not forgetting the Red Arrows

Well I have just been on the Meteorological site and the forecast for Sunday is heavy rain and poor visibility for Fairford and indeed most of that region

Saturday's forecast is cloudy.

Deeply dissapointing as I was going on Sunday. I will keep an eye on the forecast late Saturday night and hope the rain is delayed!

Wow!

Some very nice pictures there guys

To those who went on Sunday ( I pulled out due to the forecast, wimp that I am). What were the weather conditions like in the end? Was the display curtailed in any way? Did the Oasis Jumbo perform it's display?

Some very nice shots there Mr Orb. Shame the weather was poor on the Sunday
