Waddington Airshow

Gents, Ladies,
Does anybody out there know a good person to contact to get hold of complimentary tickets for the Waddington airshow. I will be flying a jet in but I'd also like a couple of tickets if possible.
Reply by PM if you'd prefer.

From the Waddington Airshow website, a contact phone number for tickets is +44 (0)1522 726102.
They should be able to point you in the right direction if they cannot directly help.

They GRUDGINGLY (and I stress that) threw a few tickets my way when I took a jet into a recent show. Miserable sods.

From the official RAF Wadddington Airshow website:
All proceeds to RAF charities and local worthy causes!
You could always buy some tickets !

They could always stop having a show at waddo, that would make a lot of people happy.

Why should he have to buy a ticket? If he’s good enough to give up a free weekend to take his jet to Waddo then he’s more than entitled to a couple of free tickets for his family in my opinion.

Yeah its for a good cause but most of us donate to RAFA, RBL etc out of our pay every month. It’s about time someone threw a few freebies our way now and again!

It’s the same every year at Leuchars, if you work on the station you’re entitled to one free ticket only. What use is that if you’ve got a wife and three kids? Those that organise it should be ashamed of themselves for that rule!

As for RIAT, you haven’t a hope in hell. I tried to get a couple of free tickets and was told where to go.

Hope you get some

Tickets

Thanks for the steers guys. I shall see what I can do.
I could always get the family to jump on the wing and I could taxy my jet to the front gate. It's not far after all!
Wonder if it'd help!
