My gf's sister's husband is one of the red arrows so we've managed to bag a couple of free tickets.

Looks like they're going to have a lot on show:

Anyone else going? Anyone been in the past?

Well, I went at the weekend and was rather impressed.

A really good show with plenty to see on the ground and in the air.

Red Arrows were the highlight, plus a couple of Spitfires, a Hurricane, a Lancaster and Messerschmitt (sorry, not sure which) and lots of others. Also had plenty of classic cars on show (and model planes, boats and cars).

The only bother was getting there. We left from Bethnal Green expecting an hour and a bit journey. Ended up taking 3! Similar duration on the way back - crazy traffic.

Will try and get some pics up at some point if anyone is interested.
