I'm going but on Friday. I'm off to Silverstone on saturday for the Britcar.

Dizee - I think you can tickets on the day, should be £28. I've bought them on the gate before.

Farnborough Flights

The last surviving Vulcan is flying - it took a group of enthusiasts years to raise the funds and the expertise to get this back to flying status

Diz, you can get tickets from selected shops in farnborugh in advance of sat/sunday. They are £23 each

Yeah, I liked that but it seemed slower than the A380

Agreed, it would be pretty intimidating if you saw it fly over you back in the day withs it nuclear cargo and the doors on the bottom openning up.

Didnt think it was that bad. But overall its not RIAT.

Got some good pics but the chaos in the car park after was a big lesson learned!
