I also went on the Saturday. Sounds like it was a far better day for weather than the Friday. Overall a strong crosswind most of the day so some flying was canx or curtailed. Most annoyingly it was outside the limits for the Me262 which for me was the star of the show. Some good set pieces, and apart from one 30 minute spell when it lashed it down weather far better than forecast. I think show could only be described as ok. maybe I am getting old but just not as exciting as it used to be.

I can vouch for the fact Friday was absolutely abysmal. I have not been that drenched for a long, long time.

Will do a thread with some images of the day once I have time to clean them up a bit.
