Well, Portrush is one of the very few official events so there is always a chance....but not even a hint at the moment! Sometimes though, like the Nimrod last year, you get a call 3 days before the show, so we'll keep hoping....

Do you know if the older planes like the world war I bi-planes are available to display because they were great the last time they appeared.

Very nice video. Looking at the size of the UK carrier fleet to that of the US Navy it's hard to believe that most of the things that we take for granted on a carrier - Catapults, landing system were developed by the Royal Navy.
