Just home from a weekend with friends in Eastbourne watching the 'airbourne' air show. No brazibays unfortunately but saw the red arrows, and the Lancaster, Spitfire and Hurricane of the Battle of Britain flight. Brought a lump to my throat I can tell you. I was once lucky enough to sit in the lancaster at RAF Coltishall in Norfolk many years ago when I was a young airman, happy days

Scooby, no I forgot the camera, apparently, not my wife who did the packing!!!!! Friends watched from beachy head and got some cracking photos. Next weekend is the Shoreham airshow which again is a cracker, has battle of britain flight as well as a vulcan and many more. Always worth watching from the downs for a 'free ticket'
Skooby, probably not we headed home about 1pm, we watched Friday and Saturday displays.
