Hoping to get in by 10am as we are staying in at the Malthouse in Ironbridge tonight - anyone else going?
(Tip - lovely pub but they have LOUD rock on Friday and Saturday nights )

For a big Airshow, that's actually very cheap - they want £45 for RIAT & Farnborough! (even Shuttleworth want £20-£25)

For the enthusiast there's not much at Cosford if you've been to the museum previously...the airshow isn't particularly exciting for £20. Although Fairford is over twice the price and over twice the distance (for me ) it is much better value with the participation of many overseas air arms. This year as well sees the UK debut of the F35 with 3 examples including 2 flying and loads of aerobatic teams.

Weather permitting, i'll be there with my 15 yr old son and three of his friends..all for about £45 entry...so thats not bad.
