NMS Museum of Flight cancels airshow....

[fernytickles]

....because of the G8 summit????

"Airshow officials said there was uncertainty about landing slots and storage space for aircraft at Edinburgh Airport"

So planes can't fly to CBN, Perth, Newcastle, Dundee, Glenrothes, Glasgow, etc etc??

That is SO feeble.... What a waste of a great airshow :(

They knew about the G8 summit last year, so why make arrangements if you're going to cancel everything ?

damn,

thanks for posting that because I had no idea it was cancelled this year :/

Maybe the museum would have to pay the airports you mentioned for holding space. From the tone of that PDF explaining why its cancelled, it sounds as if EDI "give" them the holding space during the show.

oh well
