Now £45 to go to FB2014,as opposed to just over £30 two years ago. Then they try to placate people with the "enthusiasts day" for £31,which is just the rest day between the proper trade air display and the public one in the weekend and has the worst air display.
Guess how much it costs to go to the Paris airshow which alternates with Farnborough?? 14 Euro or just above £11.
I have a feeling I might just avoid it this year.

Not to mention the lack of the F-35....
(Well that was kind of expected!)

RIAT seems "better" value for money,but will cost a metric ton for me to go though.
just going to wander down the road to watch my local airshow again

they have both of the remaining flying lancasters this year - so something very special to see!
Aah Farnborough, I wonder if that's why I saw two fighters flying overhead today, didn't get a good look but they looked like eurofighters.
It's not for a fortnight yet Rob_B guessing you something heading for Fairford or just regular.

It would be for RIAT,but at nearly £150 including travel,I might need to pass on that too.
Wow that's a high cost for travelling there! I guess moose glass isn't so cheap.

Thats just travel via train and the ticket. If I rented some better glass,that would easily be £200+ TBH!Originally Posted by TheAnimus
In that sense,even if Paris cost a bit more,I could just spend a few days there,and visit the city too.
Managed to find a cheaper and quicker route - still 3.5 to 4 hours each way(including walking time),and closer to £120 for the ticket and train. FFS,I just live in Kent.
Still not worth it.
then come to Eastbourne for airbourne in the summerits a free airshow
Went to the one in Folkestone recently - might go to the one in Eastbourne if the weather is decent.then come to Eastbourne for airbourne in the summer
I'll be at Airbourne again this year, been the past few years. Last year I got seats at the Bandstand, the year before that I watched up on the South Downs.
If there's a couple of us heading down there, why not make a Hexus Meet out of it?
And Cat, the weather is always good in Eastbourne!
with both flying lancs will be nice - still not impressed they wont bring the Vulcan back
If they're charging £45, presumably they've got excess demand and are actively trying to deter people? They've certainly deterred me.
Hexus meet for Eastbourne Airbourne sounds good and I could give you a lift Cat.
