I would just like to agree with BMW-joe,this is a show you should not miss.It used to have a model airshow in the morning before the full size aircraft,I have seen some realy nice models there and jets from the local clubs.The full size airshow was one of the best I have seen, not forgetting the other services the Army and Navy have also put on a great show for the many thousands of people that go.I also found it best to go by train as the station is very near to the action and leaves you with no worries about your car parking or safty, and is easy to get home too.Dont forget you have the fun of the Southport fare as well.
