Wednesday 15th July

 

 

It was an arly start for the arrivals this year with a B-1B Lancer appearing just around 8am. In stark constrast to last year, the weather was reasonably fair for the first arrivals day with early morning overcast and drizzle giving way to sunny cloud dappled skies. It was however a slightly slow day with relatively few arrivals and the odd rehearsal. Star of the day was the specially marked French Navy Lynx which showed off it's marked to enthusiasts at the Park and View areas. Other highlights included a German EF2000 Two-seater, a trio of Swedish Gripens, a pair of Hungarian Gripens and the arrival of the Frecce Tricolori and Swiss Air Force PC-7 Team. Thursday promises to be a busy day - keep upto to date with our live text feed!
