I was fortunate enough to be able to get a last-minute respite from A-level exam season last weekend, by traveling to Torbay for the airshow on the Saturday.
My first encounter with a seafront event, and one that I found refreshing from the usual somewhat frantic rush to a crowdline view, that base-oriented shows can sometimes present.

All in all, a highly enjoyable event, with fair weather to boot - considering the grand total of £0.00 for tickets, it certainly brought out many families and enthusiasts alike for the day, a nice change of scenery for me too.
Thanks for looking.
