I see from this mornings Belfast Telegraph that the Red Arrows will be appearing at the "Harry Fergusun Festival of Flight" at Newcastle on 7th August.

Still no word though if there's anything else flying in this 'festival'.

Irish Air Corps have allegedly been invited but no word on whether or not they're coming.

Almost no info on this online at the moment,so I doubt it will be a full airshow as such-probably just the Red Arrows display.
 
There was some talk of a flypast of vintage aircraft,but no info on types etc.
 
Down Borough Council don`t seem to much about it themselves;I have enqiured for more info several times and was told "so far all I know is the Red Arrows are coming"
