From the Team Merlin facebook page
Team Merlin
Sadly, due to a lack of serviceable aircraft, a decision has been made to cancel our attendance at Waddington International Air Show this year.

Understandably,the priority for aircraft lies elsewhere these days.

Hope those that attend have a great weekend.

Regards from us all.16 minutes ago
Sad news but very understandable
