Re: Duxford Battle of Britain Airshow- 22nd & 23rd September

Re: Duxford Battle of Britain Airshow- 22nd & 23rd September
Flippin' eck.
Thats a nice line up!
Thats a nice line up!
Re: Duxford Battle of Britain Airshow- 22nd & 23rd September
Another large update this evening: Gnat Pair, Aero Legends Prentice & Devon, Spitfire x2, Hurricane x2, Buchon x2.
Re: Duxford Battle of Britain Airshow- 22nd & 23rd September
Spitfires 'BM597' & 'JG891' now confirmed.
Re: Duxford Battle of Britain Airshow- 22nd & 23rd September
Shaping up well. To bill it as one of the 'Greatest Gathering of Warbirds since the Second World War' is rather gilding the lily somewhat, particularly compared with American Shows. That notwithstanding, it looks good tho'.
Re: Duxford Battle of Britain Airshow- 22nd & 23rd September
Seems close to selling out, just booked in but disabled parking sold out and warnings on website about limited tickets available now

Re: Duxford Battle of Britain Airshow- 22nd & 23rd September
Traffic should be interesting.
Re: Duxford Battle of Britain Airshow- 22nd & 23rd September
Spitfire 'MT928', Whirlwind HAR.10 and a second Yak-3 added.
Re: Duxford Battle of Britain Airshow- 22nd & 23rd September
Sorry MRTT, have we had the big announcement as in what was in the original list of RAF aircraft now confirmed or is there still more to come. Very very impressive already but your comment was after the list with these already listed.
Just booked my tickets for Sunday.

Re: Duxford Battle of Britain Airshow- 22nd & 23rd September
MRTT posted the big announcement announcement on Sun Jun 24. RAF announcement was made on Fri Jul 20 a month after that post. I believe MRTT is updating the list in the first post as additions are made.peasus911 wrote: ↑Wed Aug 08, 2018 5:57 pmSorry MRTT, have we had the big announcement as in what was in the original list of RAF aircraft now confirmed or is there still more to come.

Re: Duxford Battle of Britain Airshow- 22nd & 23rd September
Hi Brian. Yes as I had really worked out, as stated the RAF editions were in the original post but probably not actually confirmed.
Can't believe this line up, too many of my own favourites there for me to pick any real stand outs. think there is something there for everyone.
Well done IWM and all involved for bringing all this together after a busy season already.

Re: Duxford Battle of Britain Airshow- 22nd & 23rd September
Certainly looks to be one of the best Duxford line ups for quite some time.

Lancaster, Red Arrows and Typhoon 4 were the only RAF aircraft listed in the original IWM list. Just checked.

Hi Brian. Again all I was pointing out was the second thread was after the first line up that not just me but everyone can see DID have all RAF participants listed...…Pen Pusher wrote: ↑Wed Aug 08, 2018 6:40 pm

Big flying announcements' coming soon, according to the IWM.
Re: Duxford Battle of Britain Airshow- 22nd & 23rd September
I added the F-35/Tornado etc to the list after the announcement was made, not at the end of May.
Re: Duxford Battle of Britain Airshow- 22nd & 23rd September
Unfortunately I've got family commitments that Weekend would have loved to have attended this.
Re: Duxford Battle of Britain Airshow- 22nd & 23rd September
Presumably as the show has a B.O.B. theme, I hope we see a return to the skies of the three Hispano. Was very jealous that they were flying together last month and couldn't make it.Going to be interesting what formations will be created with such an array of aircraft to choose from. Might also be investing in a flightline walk as well. Also very much looking forward to seeing the Puma fly as well. We forget these often common place airframes and then all of a sudden its too late.
Think Brian will be busy during the run up to this event, will be watching with eager eyes.
