BluBear Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 Howdy Chaps, I appreciate this will really only apply to the UK Dogz but it's looking like this year's show will be a classic! Saturday seems to be the best day with the addition of the Vulcan, but we do get the Canadian Lanc both days. For a full list of participants, see here: http://www.shorehamairshow.co.uk/whatson/aircraft.html Vulcan, two Lancasters, Typhoon, Hunter and a rare appearance by TFC US Navy warbirds are my top picks! So, who's in? 1 Quote

1. DDz Quorum Painless Posted July 22, 2014 1. DDz Quorum Posted July 22, 2014 I can only go on the Saturday Chris because Sunday is young Marc's Lamborghini day ; ) Poo face. Quote
2. Administrators Jabo Posted July 22, 2014 2. Administrators Posted July 22, 2014 Shame there's no mention of the Sea Vixen, but it's a pretty good line up all the same. Quote
2. Administrators Jabo Posted July 22, 2014 2. Administrators Posted July 22, 2014 And a chance to see Bruce Dickinson (yes, that one!) flying with the Great War Display Team Quote
1. DDz Quorum Painless Posted July 23, 2014 1. DDz Quorum Posted July 23, 2014 I'm going to take sandwiches this time, the que for food was rather large as I remember ; ) P. Quote
BluBear Posted July 30, 2014 Author Posted July 30, 2014 Ok chaps, judging by the effect the two lancs are having on other shows (Sywelll just sold out in advance!) and combine that with the 'Vulcan effect' of the Saturday line up, it may be prudent to book your tickets in advance! Quote
2. Administrators Jabo Posted July 30, 2014 2. Administrators Posted July 30, 2014 Thanks for the intel Chris, I'll pick that up when I get home. Quote
BluBear Posted July 30, 2014 Author Posted July 30, 2014 I've just booked mine, £18 advance (bargain!) and that can be used either day. Quote

2. Administrators Jabo Posted August 2, 2014 2. Administrators Posted August 2, 2014 I see from the latest issue of FlyPast magazine (other aviation periodicals are available), Dr Robert Pleming (the guy whose company operates the Vulcan) has said that they are currently working towards flying the Vulcan with both the Lancasters at shows where all three are booked together! Anyone like to hazard a guess as to which show is the first where all three aircraft are making an appearance? Jabo Quote
1. DDz Quorum Painless Posted August 2, 2014 1. DDz Quorum Posted August 2, 2014 That would be nice Nick, a musical afternoon spent in the company of Mr Merlin Olympus! yaaaaaay ; ) Quote
1. DDz Quorum Friar Posted August 24, 2014 1. DDz Quorum Posted August 24, 2014 Ok Chaps, now that this is upon us, time to firm up some arrangements.. What time are we getting there? Where should we meet (the Spitfire Bar has been mentioned Your thoughts (I will be arriving by train into Shoreham-By-Sea train station and then either walking or getting the free shuttle.) Quote
BluBear Posted August 24, 2014 Author Posted August 24, 2014 Gates open at 8.30, i'll be getting there for that time as we are driving. I've never had a problem finding somewhere to park in the past, however, the prospect of the 2 Lancs and also the Vulcan in attendance will most likely raise the numbers somewhat! The Spitfire Bar is usually smack behind the centreline of the display and is as good a place as any to meet. Quote
2. Administrators Jabo Posted August 25, 2014 2. Administrators Posted August 25, 2014 Works for me Chris and if things work as planned I shall be getting there with Tom anyway. Quote
1. DDz Quorum Friar Posted August 25, 2014 1. DDz Quorum Posted August 25, 2014 Right, I have now booked my train tickets. I will be arriving at Shoreham train station at 9:30 so should be at the airfield by 10:00 May I suggest a meeting time window of 10:00 - 10:30 at the Spitfire Bar? Quote
1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted August 25, 2014 1. DDz Quorum Posted August 25, 2014 (....) May I suggest a meeting time window of 10:00 - 10:30 at the Spitfire Bar? Yes, you may.... Quote
