Bit of a general question concerning this. Are there any websites detailing what flight commemorations there are for the anniversary? Mrs yt and me are keen to see some of the airborne celebrations but don't want to get caught up in horrific traffic in and around Portsmouth and Southsea etc. We're sort of looking to to drive somewhere, park up the car and stand on a beach of some sort and watch any sort of overhead display or re-enactment. Sorry to be so woolly.

(Dad went up the beaches around Arromanche, and yesterday we went to Lepe Beach in Hampshire and had a very good guided tour around the local beaches where some of the D-Day embarcations took place and where six of the original caissons for the Mulberry harbour were built. Dad was at the other end bolting them together - though he did have a hand from a few others!!).
