Flying Legends 2019
Discussion
Flying list looks very sparse for this year, and nothing in addition to the usual suspects:

With less than 2 months to go there's usually a lot more aircraft scheduled to fly. Does anyone know it there is anything out of the ordinary displaying this year?

Flying list for the Air Festival this weekend looks even worse. Last years looked great:

The wonderful DH.9 restoration took to the air at Duxford for first time this week, so its possible that might make a debut at Leg Ends, as is likely the ARCO Lizzie that flew for the first time last September.https://www.flyinglegends.com/aircraft.html

4 x Buchon's in the air will possibly be a first as well.
Sadly, with the change in regs post Shoreham, I think its just going to get harder and harder to put displays on, even for TFC etc. And then there's the elephant in the room of TFC in future years, SG is not getting any younger, so what form will it continue in after SG is gone, if at all.
Make the most of it while you can.

Fair enough, was a guess, as sadly I've not been able to get to Leg Ends since 2014 (having been to all of them up to that year) and was hoping to try and get there this year, but again, circumstances won't allow BTW, re. the four Buchons being a first, I took this last year:

Watched the movie again the other day. That scene always makes me wince.
Me too. But if the film hadn't promoted interest on the B of B and what relics were left, Duxford might have been a housing estate by now.Gassing Station | Boats, Planes & Trains | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
