    I think that the time you are talking about they left for a show in France after displaying at Salthill but the show wasn't until the next day. Could be wrong and I stand to be corrected if so. They have, however, done two shows in the one day before on several occasions but Maybe the cut backs in funds are preventing this.

    I found an old thread that says it was the same day, it was the last time they were here for the ocean race, they went to France straight after for another air show.

    Shame, it would have been cool and an extra draw to Galway. The VOR should be great though all the same - especially if we get the weather. Fingers crossed :)

    The Reds not only have RIAT that weekend but they are also displaying at Silverstone for the British Grand Prix. I Think two very good reasons why they are unable to appear at the VOR.

    Can there not be another show by another entity.

    Be it dj's , dance , parade , whatever.

    Once in a lifetime opportunity GALWAY.

    Let's make the best of it.

    Very inconsiderate of the VOR organizers not to consider that when they picked their dates :D
