LCY Air Display?
Hi folks, The web site of LCY states that there is an 'air show' as part of their 'fun day' on Saturday 3rd July but I cannot find any info?
The web site gives an email address but does anyone have experience of previous years? What sort of a/c do
--------------------
"I tell you, we are here on Earth to fart around, and don't let anybody tell you any different." Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. they normally parade?
Cheers

The show is about 1/2 mile from my house and I have seen it in previous years too. For a minor event it can be quite interesting.
LCY normally shuts down at lunchtime on Saturday but that's when the aircraft start to arrive. Usually a small but competently displayed selection of aerobatics, a warbird or three, wingwalkers on a Tiger Moth, the Utterley Butterley lot, sometimes skydivers (a bit restricted under the LTMA), one or two other things. All displayed nicely over the old Albert Dock away from the crowd line. Fairground rides etc are also assembled on the apron. Most of the participants have flown away by about 1800. It's all to raise funds for local charities.
