I was at the show on Monday, parked up at Queens Parade car park & caught courtesy bus to Gate A (next to Swan pub) I already had my ticket.
Then queued for over an hour to shuffle through the security checks. Organisation was a complete disgrace, the worst I have ever known at an airshow. 4 detector gates on the left-hand entrance, with only 1 staffed & open for use. It took me longer to get from my car into the show than it did to drive up from Bournemouth!
We were only there for our own general interest, god knows how the business types thought and how much trade they lost waiting to get in.
