Weekend after next, anyone going?
Usually a good day out, although a bit boring (pretty similar every year)
Apparently biggest air show in UK

Lincoln.
I've been before, it's generally the same, won't be going this year. I'll just listen to the coverage on Lincs FM.

RIAT - Royal International Air Tatoo staged at RAF Fairford, Gloucestershire, near Swindon is the largest annual air show outside the USA.
and just to have something to laugh at, RAF Fairford is loaned to the USAAF!! the place is crawling with the Yanks! it is also the only runway that the B2 is permitted to land at outside the USA by US Government and is the priority runway for the B52 bombers in Europe.
just to make this post worth it geek factor Concorde test flights took off from Fairford given its 3 and bit mile runway
