As Scampton airshow is cancelled for 2018, Cleethorpes Airshow is a go! Very good! Lets hope they have a decent selection.

Good news for the town. And the old dear is guaranteed another visit  


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

I just love airshows! Anybody go to the Finningley shows in the 70’s/80’s? I saw the Galaxy at Finningley, we walked through it, that would have been around 1980(ish)


Grimsby and proud!

I used to go in the late 90's.   I was obsessed with the Harrier (might be wrong) that used to hover in mid air and slowly move backwards...

I used to live in Binbrook too when I was young and saw a couple of airshows there with the fabulous lightnings.

That's two iconic, ahead of their time planes right there Si. Not sure if the current crop will be remembered fondly in 30-40 years time.

To be fair, if they get a Typhoon doing a display over the Humber again, that's pretty impressive. Not to mention very noisy!

I'm lucky enough to play a part in organising The Farnborough one as a job. Already the massive marques and groundwork is getting done. Even had a display team over this week to test for certification. The buzz for that has already started.

I did too. I was a Binbrook regular in my youth (and Donna Nook)  and still enjoy the odd trip to Coningsby.
