Having worked for the Air Show this week, I did experience first hand the flying displays and perhaps they could have been a bit more impressive but they were still very very good. With regards to the queues for buses and car parks - we were dealing with world cup final numbers so we were told. To get people on these buses safely it did take longer. The same with security - we had to do the job effectively. People did complain at the queues, which is fair enough. However if we didn't do the job as we were supposed to and heaven forbid someone did get through with a forbidden object, the same people would waste no time in compaining again.
The price of the ticket is a bit steep, but considering all that was on offer, I think it was fair.

All in all Farnborough was and is a great event and long may it continue!!!
