String · « **Reply #40 on:** March 27, 2009, 05:09:59 PM »

just looked at the line-up so far getting more excited as the time gets near.
I hope the black cats can make it this time round.
many thanks TTF great info.

iCardboardRobot · « **Reply #41 on:** March 30, 2009, 12:31:20 PM »

already quite excited about this, is there much more awaiting the nod to be announced ?

Tango Tango Fanta · « **Reply #42 on:** March 30, 2009, 02:29:23 PM »

Mostly just waiting on RN to confirm. Black Cats won't be there - they're in Plymouth or Portstmouth. But what's in it's place will be even more involved and more spectacular.
Typhoon now on Sunday ONLY - pity.
No King Air.
Harrier very doubtful.

The suspense is killing me

iCardboardRobot · « **Reply #44 on:** March 30, 2009, 03:26:17 PM »

Pitty about the Euro, still glad its there though, gutted about the harrier. I presume you mean no sea king, again disappointing.
Cant wait to hear whats actually going to happen, very suspenful. Hoping it will be v.good !

No he could possibly still mean the King Air. The RAF have one doing the airshow circuit.

when do you expect RN to confirm stuff mate ? Dying to know, been built up well !

Dave · « **Reply #48 on:** April 01, 2009, 01:23:55 AM »

Hoping for some big aircraft

My hopeful and insane wish list which I'm sure you've all heard before;

Hercules,
CASA,
Nimrod (unlikely)
VC-10,
cough 747 cough,
I guess the AN2 will do,
B-25 - the Dutch one from a few years ago was top notch!
Lancaster,
Sally B B17,
DC-6 - now that was a corker when it appeared!

Pitty Ryanair never partake in such events as it would be good publicity for them. Anyhow, regardless whats up for appearance, I'm sure the show will be as good as last years

Last years was immense, and it's how I ended up finding and joining this website!

String · « **Reply #49 on:** April 18, 2009, 02:47:56 PM »

Hope the RN will confirm more soon can't wait
