I'm there from wed as a volunteer we get to have a good look around on thursday
Glad you had more luck than me....I applied months ago, and finally got a "thanks but no thanks" yesterday.
I am doing some work via another route, at the weekend so will get to see some of the stuff, but if I had been relying on it see stuff and had to buy a ticket instead, I would have been buggered.
Not going to win any photo comps with this, but nice to see them nonetheless.

Can anyone point me to a rough flying schedule - I can't see anything in their website.
I don't think RIAT ever pre-publish the flying schedule......?Been a long time since I went, but flying usually started at around 10.30-11.00am back in the day....and I always made sure I was within a few miles of the entrance gate by 7.00am....!!

They won't officially publish one unless you pay the £12 for a programme. The app and commentary on the day will have 'key timings' but that's all you'll get for free.However, the nice people on the various airshow forums usually get hold of one on Thurs/Fri and type them up, so it's not hard to find.

Last time I was there it was 1985.
I think we went down Friday and sat on the top of some grassed up bunkers and watched stuff land
There was a b52 mural on a hangar as well
And I think the theme might have been skytanker 85
And oh yes it leathered it down as well, so much we sat under an arctic trailer to escape the rain
