No. Too far away for me. Too late to think of it this year but might another.

Re: A pleasure and a privilege.

As you can with the Vulcan too darlin'. With George and one of my Uncles many, many years ago we were at Tangmere Aerodrome when a Vulcan Bomber flew low over the trees, dropped to nought feet along the runway and when he got to the end (where we were) he hauled back on the stick, switched on the after burners and flew almost vertical. At 20,000 feet we could still feel the heat from his after burners and the sound of those engines was deafening!!!

Not long got back from the RIAT, it was amazing to see the Euro Fighter flying in tandem with the Spitfire.

Oh how wonderful. Glad someone from here went. I'm looking forward to my few days in Bournemouth end August for their Air Festival.

Talking of planes, one of the Breitling wing walking pilots started his career as a gofer at Clacton Aero Club when I first started. He was probably about 14 or 15 then. Fearless, and flying before he was driving. Now friends on Facebook so I can watch where they are off to next.

Hi Jazzi, I've just about got my hearing back now, watched from offsite for the first time, Furzey Hill Farm, and walked up to the perimeter fence, far side from the crowd line, fantastic photo opportunities.
