airshow / fly in / event of the year

Post by andygolfer » Tue Sep 16, 2014 7:57 am

Here's an idea I had this morning. The airshow season is nearly over (last Old Warden show is October 6th) so what have been your best UK civilian shows of 2014 (by civilian I mean not RIAT or Waddington or the other RAF base shows - Fighter Control can deal with those!).

Tell us the ones you enjoyed (and why) and then in October I'll run a poll on what are the 10 most mentioned to decide the Civilian Aviation Show of The Year (CASTY?)

I'll start it off with my list that I attended in my order of preference:
Little Gransden
Clacton (Thursday )
Duxford Flying legends (Sunday)
Clacton ( Friday)
Duxford September show , (Saturday)
Stow Maries fly in (the weather spoilt it on the Saturday when I went, sunday was apparently much better)
Duxford D-Day (didnt see all of it as had to leave)

last two were listed lowest due to reasons given, the Stow Maries event has been good in previous years when the weather has obliged

so - what is on your list?
