I take it that means a Beech Model 18 or similar, a Grumman G-21 Goose amphibian ,and a de Havilland DH.104 Dove ?
Interesting enough aircraft, but hardly spectacular.

Looks like a Beech 18, going by advertising photos it is N700TN and the DeHavilland Dove due is G-OPLC. Both are booked for Rush-Fingal the next day on the North side of Dublin.

There is a Grumman G-21 Goose in the UK which was under maintence but I hadn't heard anything about it flying again. Not something I have ever seen.

The Grumman Goose may well be N457SC which I believe is based at Weston.

BMMF Lancaster won't be at the show as confirmed by Bray themselves on FB.

Well, did anyone from on here go to Bray ? I saw a few clips on youtube and it looked crappy, nice noise from the Spitfire but that was about it. I doubt it will happen again.

Didn't bother going, but looks like the Spitfire & P51 were the highlights.

Don't think the Dove, Beech or Goose made it? Not seen any photos of them at Bray or today's Rush show. T6 Texan was removed also during the week.

Brought in an apx £3.5m apparently to the local economy according to papers and news today.
