FARNBOROUGH MEMORIES
We lived in Cove just to the north of Farnborough in 1950 and all the aircraft from the airshows would provide a fantastic sight from our back garden. When we moved away we always went to the public days to watch from the crowd line whilst sitting on the the roof of the car. You needed to get in early to get a good spot. Lucky enough to display at Farnborough on 3 occasions but the last one was a flypast only due to change is display rules. The only way to reinstate public days is to relocate the show to a suitable airfield. That will never happen in my opinion as probably too many vested interests in play.
