Bray Air Display 2023 - 29th & 30th July 2023

The Red Arrows are on at 1500 the Lancaster flew home after their flypast so I doubt they would fly back from the UK to Bray again especially looking at the weather for tomorrow

Well other than they (BBMF) have it listed on their site as both days at 1500. Yes weather dependent, but as they are leaving UK winds shouldn’t be as much of an issue. Neither should the cloud as all they are doing is runs up and down.

Reds aren’t due off blocks till 1450 tomorrow. Published TAF isn’t very detailed for show time so it could go anyway at all.

Who knows what the order is, the organisers hold the running order so close to their chest it’s ridiculous. Most years in my experience they are hugely disorganised getting everything in any order at all, hence why it falls apart.

Beautiful pictures really love the 1st one has a real war look about it

You're entitled to your opinion but for those that did go along today there was a show with reasonable variety and no display gaps. Several of the pilots commented to the display ATC that the conditions were pretty turbulent but this wasn't really evident to the public and no act cancelled on account of the weather. You seem to have some detailed knowledge of the running of the show last year that the rest of us don't, but in any case that is history and it's now 2023.

Am most likely going to give this a miss this year as all the weather forecasts would appear to be not conducive to an airshow

Yeah not great out here at the moment. Still dry & breeze is dying down but the cloud cover is fairly low & forecast is for heavy shows from early afternoon

Remember one year at Salthill it was lashing rain in the morning the Reds were to close the show at 5pm, they always played the Marine and Aircraft comms over the tannoy system , there was a Navy ship heading for Salthill for the show and they called him up and asked for the current weather and were told it was beautiful West of Aran heading in our direction, turned into a scorcher of a day, there is hope yet

Hopefully the current bands of rain move off before show time. Saw the RTE News report on yesterday's display, crowds looked very tin on the beach compared to previous years.

What runway would Reds be taking off from please

Dart virtually empty. Southbound from Connolly at 13:30. Loads of staff on. Croke Park seems to be a bigger generator of crowds today.

Any idea what time the red arrows will depart dublin airport to go to bray today 30/7/23

2.50pm runway 28 Left not the best for plane spotters rain at Dublin Airport

People were told to start they're DART journeys before 11am so it's 50 minutes before start now, it's going to be quieter on the darts.

Attendance in general is down this year, airshow this weekend competing with more events, all Ireland final, aviva stadium & concerts in Dun Laoighre

Personally myself and even being local to Bray I think it needs to freshen up the acts, in general its the same most years. Went down to it yesterday & I'll watch the reds from the house, apart from that won't be missing much that wasn't there yesterday
