I'm heading over in the morning, you have to buy a programme for the full timetable but the organisers have said the Red Arrows are opening at 12:00 . Weather not looking too good at the moment ..

Rained overnight, now bright with some cloud, and a Northerly wind.
I don't think it will be a problem ?

I've just seen that you are in Torquay Captain Ahab. A good spot coming from that direction, is the field near the smugglers inn in Holcombe. They charge a couple of quid, but the aircraft go right over you.

XH558 just flown over Honiton on its way to Dawlish. Unable to be there myself, but should be good for those that are attending.

Saw the whole show from the hill previously mentioned in between Dawlish and Teignmouth.

Epic show! Having the red arrows, vulcan, typhoon and memorial flight planes all "buzz the tower" 100ft or so over our heads was something pretty amazing!

Quite a breezy day but the sun was out and it was well worth it. Will have to try and get the boat out to watch it next year

Red Arrows came over us in Crowborough again, guess they had been a Air and Wheels or whatever its called at Dunsfold, something else came over as well, thing it was the Hunter.

Very long story short, ours will finally be anchored underneath next years show. See you there.

Loved the Typhoon
