Interesting thread. Here's my choices:

Best formation - Six (count 'em!) Dragon Rapides at Flying Legends, with Sunday's Sea Hawk / T33 / Sabre trio a very close second.
Best modern aero's display - The Sukhoi at Duxford on Sunday, if only for snap rolling it repeatedly straight after take off
Funniest moment - watching some stepladder jockey drop his coffee down his shirt as the Tornado ran in (from the direction he WASN'T looking towards) at the Duxford D-Day show. There is a god...
Tear-jerk moment - Sally B trailing smoke at Gransden... not a dry eye...
Standing-staring-in-awe moment - the RAFGSA glider pair flying syncronised aerobatics at Gransden.
Thing I liked best about 2004 - The number of take off's I've seen has equalled the number of landings.
