Airshow Noshow
A small selection of photos I took at the September Air Show 2017 - about as close to seeing the same sight this year after I decided not to go to the September air show at Duxford.
I'd got complimentary tickets for the Saturday but when I went to buy a parking permit towards the end of August (with still a month to go) they'd all gone.
The weather forecast and prospect of trying to park at an external site and get bussed in/out added to the decision to miss this year.
The forecast for Sunday looked even worse so hope the 25,000 or so ticket holders at least get some flying for their money.
Next year I'll get the parking permit as early as possible! Now, where did I put that 17 Spitfire tailchase video from 2015?...
Weatherwise I'm glad I sat this one out as well!
ReplyDeleteThree hours before a bus appeared at Trumpington Park & Ride in the morning apparently!! And a taxi from Whittlesford station took 90 mins to get to the main entrance due to gridlock!!!
ReplyDeleteTime to pay £10, stay at home and watch it on Planes TV?
No queues for food, drink or toilets!!
