Always go to Farnborough, but prices seem to have rocketed this year. £41 if paying on the day.

£41 , I coughed and splutterd at £30 last year

I do hope you're right! Was gutted when I heard the SU-27 fleet had been grounded.

Apparently the Russian Knights left this morning with an IL76, make of that what you will... Lots of conflicting reports...

From the Farnborough web site

Unfortunately the two Russian Knights’ Su-27s scheduled to appear at the Farnborough International Airshow 2012 will now not be taking part due to delays which have prevented them from completing the show’s stringent aircraft validation process
