As per title, does anyone here "know" as to what's due to display at tomorrow's "Marham Families Day" display please ????

Particularly "old WW.II" Propeller planes please, but also Jets

Thanks in advance....

Reds are due as there is a NOTAM for them 1155-1230.

Doesnt look like Typhoon is going as the main NOTAM only goes up to 5,000ft.

Anything else OTHER than Reds, as, I tend to "give them a miss" - (being bluntly honest


In past years I know they've had the Red/Silver P.37 Thunderbolt (I missed it) plus Sally.B & an Avro Anson - Even a French build Me.108 lookalike, etc

ANYTHING other than Reds...... as "if" it were ONLY Red Arrows, then I wouldn't bother going, it's only down the road for me....

BUMP !! The silence is deafening....

I guess if you've not got a reply no one knows anything?


Reds are due at 12.

Dragon 12 inbound

By the way the local roads can't cope with crowds outside for a family day so best to stay away

G-DKNA Aero L-159E ALCA and G-FRAW Falcon 20 were sent from Teesside as Draken 11/12. First time a 159 landed away.

I swung by about 1430 for a very quick look;

A P8 did a fly past as I was parking up which if ADSB is to be believed was ZP808 (my last one ). Did anyone please visibly confirm it?

On the ground there were a selection of microlights, other light aircraft and a Boeing 727 but of interest to me were;

F35 ZM166 ‘032’.
Chipmunk WK630 (G-BXDG).
Stearman 317 (G-CIJN).
Vampire LN-DHY in Italian marks.
G-HAHU Yak 11.
G-FRAW Falcon 20.
G-DKNA L159.
G-BYUO Tutor.
ZZ190 Hunter.

It looked like it’d been a great day. A P47, F15 and F35 flew over in formation as I was leaving and an A400 was showing nearby on ADSB so had likely been involved.
