Save Our Airshows

[lynothehammer]

Not sure if this has been posted in here, i've had a quick look and can't see it but please please get behind this and sign the petition against the CAA and their decision to pretty much kill of the UK airshow scene.

3 airshows gone already and the CAA report was only issued 9 days ago, Carol Vorderman is backing this now it's time for you to do the same... #SaveOurAirshows

What three airshows have been cancelled due to the CAA?

[zsdom]

LLandudno, Herne bay & Sywell, an event featuring a Harrier Gr3 taxiing has been cancelled due to uproar over mis reporting it to be an air show too

[StephenP]

I assume this refers to the 2016 Llandudno, Manchester and Sywell. The first two refer to the new CAA rules/review as factors. Sywell is, apparently, only partly due to the new CAA rules.

All three I believe seem to suggest a return in 2017 being possible...

Signed.

[hantsxlg]

I would how FIA might be affected this year. Will they allow gaupers from all around the perimeter still?

She was still planning the last I heard. She's currently keeping current in a DA40
