Nowt to do with cars but I'm off to RAF Waddington on Sunday for the airshow. Looks to be a good un and the Vulcan will apparently be doing a taxi run...so should be loud.
Big Nige is off to Fairford Air Tattoo but he wont have the Vulcan...

I tried to go on the sunday last year........ got turned away at the gates, water-logged!

Was there the year before, but spent the day trying to get over the defeat of England in the world cup the day before, and I could find no sign of the VC-10!

I thought the Vulcan was coming to Fairford too??

I'm not sure where it's going next. You would have thought so though. But I do know one thing that they announced at Waddington. That is they need to raise some serious cash because the money will apparently run out soon leaving them able to do only a few more shows this year. And after all the money they have spent on getting it to this stage all they want to do is fly it.
