ISTM the public voted with their feet yesterday (Sunday): the stream of early leavers back to the car park started at 14:00, and was a flood by 15:00

Certainly, the trade days and the manufacturer's stands were as good as you would want, but the flying display......."pedestrian" would be a polite term for it.

Highlights: Su31, C17, Kiwi 757, and the heavy metal.
Waste of time: percussion pyrotechnics out of synch with the passing aircraft, massive delays between flypasts, and the Friday display in its entireity.
