The only show in Hampshire I have attended recently is 'Music in the Air' at Middle Wallop, which has been going for some time. It used to attract an enormous audience and the flying was great, synchronised with music played by an orchestra on stage.
I haven't found out anything about it this year and wonder if anyone knows the date or any other details? I believe something similar was staged in Northampton last year, including a madman who flew a microlight with a gaggle of geese.
Anyone know anything about this?
Music in the Air has indeed been held at Middle Wallop for many years, and very successfully too. It certainly is a very "different" airshow, with a nice variety of display aircraft synchronised with the orchestra's music.
The one at Northampton you mention was staged at Sywell Aerodrome and was also last year known as Music in the Air.
Unfortunately, Music in the Air is not being staged at Middle Wallop this year - but Sywell is hosting another event, only this year it has been renamed "Music in Flight". It's on 21st July.
