Normally you would see a date in the calendar at this stage for the Bray Airshow. I wonder if it is going ahead this year🤔
Beechcraft, Dove, and Goose added to line up
CASA 295 is mentioned in the event programme which can be found on the website
Thanks. I'll take a look. The Goose has been in the UK for maintenance for several months. I hadn't heard that it was back yet.
Im on hols so cant go this year. But every year I try to get there for 1130. (DART from Tara/Pearse) Gives me time to have a walk around, grab a bit of lunch and settle somewhere before the crowds arrive after 1pm.
Does anyone have an info on the Lancaster arrival. Is it due in on Friday into Bal?
Thanks
Battle of Britian will not be there they said this in answer to a question on facebook
Juust saw this posted on Facebook
A Spitfire just flew down the Liffey towards Weston or Bal so I'm guessing will be displaying.
Just landed in Weston. A glorious sight to see in the skies over Dublin.
Jordanian Falcons did practice at Bray and now heading for a practice at Rush.
yes, I’m getting glorious views out my attic window…
They've just finished up in Rush this last few minutes… Fantastic view, and the iPhone camera doesn't do it justice at all…
Thanks for the headsup! I heard an unusual engine noise and raced out in D5 and saw the 4 Jordanian Falcons passing.
Saw them a while ago over Leixlip. Is the Spitfire still out in Weston?
Lineup does not look great this year. Although I'll still be going. My first Bray Airshow since before the Pandemic.
Are there any websites that I can listen to the ATC for the show. I see from the FAQ that "ATC on 119.60 MHz", or do I need to have a proper air-band radio.
C295 overhead a couple of time in South Dublin. I'm guessing practise for the weekend.
So nothing interesting coming into Baldonnel this weekend then? 😕
Was out on Weston earlier very quiet,no doubt the wind wasn't helping. Do we know what is out there;
Falcons
Spitfire,
Mustang, Jet pitts, Stearmans for the Wing Walkers did any of these make it over from the UK?
No Viggen don't blame him not coming, nothing exciting at Baldonnel
To my knowledge those aircraft listed in your last line have not arrived in Weston, as yet anyway. The Spitfire is not listed in the programme so may be a substitute. If the weather on Saturday morning is OK you may see some making the sea crossing. Bray has been plagued with changeable weather around the show date on several occasions and this year is no exception.
Spitfire was on the website, then disappeared but is now in Dublin. T6 Texan was also meant to come with the Spitfire and P51 but it disappeared from listings too.
Viggen was never on the schedule for this year at Bray :(
The Blades RV8s are heading up towards North Wales at the moment so presumably en route to Weston or Newcastle.
G-JPIT Pitts is passing Holyhead also.
Mustang G-BIXL flew Duxford to Sleap (Shropshire) last evening so will presumably continue this morning.
Anyone have a running order for today yet?
What's landing at Weston today. I'm keeping a watch out
P-51 Mustang is over North Wales at the moment, en route to Weston.
Deadly.
Have you got a tracker for it, didn't see it on flight radar
Cause "Nothing Compairs To You".
Exactly ,,, Nothing.
Not a Airshow, it's a small gathering of interested people all trying to make a few bob. And organising people trying to convince you and me to attend same and spend money in the town.
Really bad this year!!
Is start time 3pm?
