Looks like the Reds are spending most of the summer in America.

Won't be available for what would have been Portrush in June and now looks like they are missing every UK show up until August at earliest as it seems they will be at Oshkosh.

One of the options was to share displays with Prestwick, now Portrush not going ahead, wait and see Prestwick pulling out something great like a F18 and Frecce Tricolori with an RAF F35 demo  and Portrush missing out.
