Anyone know if it's displaying today?

Quite a few flypast's by the looks of things

[Smiler.]

Managed to get a few shots on the return










Awesome machine.

My all time favourite plane next to spitfire vulcan and lightning.

I have yet to see a Spit or Hurri this year so I was quite suprised to see the Lanc circling Bracknell.

I was flying my competition gliders and she stopped the whole field of flyers as she flew over.

Yeah, I saw that thread. I'd like to know what the flightpath is & whether I'm in with a chance of a personal flypast

I understand that they are forming up over Goodwood and flying north, west of Farnborough, over the Great Park and then the castle. I intend to watch from the park.

Copied from another forum is a list of 69 of the 85 aircraft:


This 85 aircraft thing. I've been trying to work out where best to go, but cant make the numbers add up. So far, we appear to have....

9 Typhoons, operating out of Coningsby????
28 Hawk T1/T2's from Valley, Leeming and Culdrose, all operating out of Yeovilton in an "EiiR" formation
20 Tucanos from Linton, operating out of ????? in a "60" formation
9 Red Arrows
3 (?) Battle of Britain memorial flight aircraft (Lanc, Spit and Hurricane at a guess)


Eta: also apparently a dozen helo's a vc10 and Tornado's
