Having just bought the official commerative programme for the Bournemouth Air Festival I find that the timings published for the various participating aircraft are given in one hour blocks, no clear specific timings are shown. I guess that when the programme went to print the detailed timings had still to be agreed. I am skippering a boat on Friday which is taking disabled people to a seaborne viewing point adjacent to the display area. Timing is important as I have to get the boat through the Poole lifting Bridge to and from its mooring. Most folks on board are looking forward to seeing the Arrows but I only know that they are on between 3 and 4 pm. The bridge opening of choice on return is 1630 and the transit time is one hour. If the Arrows don`t appear until 4pm it will be the 1830 bridge for us which makes it a long day for the pax. Anyone know detailed timings for Friday 19 Aug?

Display is from 1530 until 1556

I got that from here:

Red Arrows at Bournemouth on Friday from 1530 to 1556 according to:

I hope you, and especially your guests, enjoy the show. Timings can change, of course, but with luck those times-over-target will hold and enable you to plan something suitable around the bridge timings.
