Somewhat off-topic, but do forgive me. I remember going to the Biggin Hill Airshow as a nineteen year-old in 1965. The highlight then was the arrival of the Lancaster rescued from the Far East.
It took ages to get back to London on the Sunday evening after the show, because the organisers had not arranged enough buses to ferry us back to civilisation, in the days when many more people went by public transport.

Best way to get to a UK airshow? Undoubtedly was by Air Atlantique Dak, sadly now a thing of the past due to Eurotape.
