I don't know if anyone is into planes or aviation but the Farnborough air show is back! 14-15 July the doors will open to the general public to view this air show spectacular!

I work right next to it so on tea breaks and lunch breaks I get a glimpse of some of the planes practising. It really is a fascinating show with planes and jets performing all sorts of stunts.
I got dragged there for years as a kid,I'll give it a miss thanks.

I can appreciate where you're coming from mate. As I live 4 miles from the airshow I can safely say I'm glad when it's done. Seen it once, seen it a thousand times syndrome springs to mind. The noise is deafening. The local council dishes out free tickets for local residents who might be effected by the show, however I'm outside that catchment area!
Some free ear plugs would be nice though.
It is pretty insane some of the things they do with these planes, so would recommend anyone who might be interested to go though.
Did you go to the airshow?, i went last year and really enjoyed it but this year i went to the royal air tattoo which was awsome.
I can remember attending the Farnborough Airshow in 1970 when Concorde make it's first appearance at the show. If memory serves me correctly I think it just flew past at a very low level.
Going to the airshow this year. The F35 is making its international airshow debut.
