The organisers of the Kemble Air Show in Gloucestershire are building up a big reputation for their early season show.

The MOD obviously thinks so too with their strong commitment of aircraft displays including Typhoon, Red Arrows, Blue Eagles (Apache and Lynx), Black Cats (Navy Lynx team) plus the BBMF and the RN Historic Flight.

Part of Kemble’s success has been its appeal to families who love the ‘wingwalkers’ and aerobatics but it’s the cavalcade of classic jets that set this airshow apart.

Sunday 14th of June 2009. A lovely Summer’s day, with blue skies and puffy white clouds. Perfect for an airshow. Perfect, in fact for Royal Air Force Cosford to hold its annual big aviation event.

The Airshow was made very special by the 2009 public debut of the AVRO Vulcan. This was the first appearance of the recently restored aircraft at Cosford for 17 years. The intense interest in the Vulcan combined with the superb summer weather made this event a sell-out with 58,000 spectators attending.

The Sunderland International Airshow is one of Europe’s biggest and it’s free!

It takes place on the seafront at Seaburn and always attracts a big crowd; not just families looking for a day out and hoping to see regulars like The Red Arrows and Falcons Parachute Team but enthusiasts too drawn by rare appearances by Merlin, Apache and fast jets from Europe.

This year the star for everyone was the newly restored Vulcan bomber tearing the sky apart with its spine-tingling ‘howl’.

The Lowestoft Seafront Air Festival is one of the UK’s biggest shows and it’s free!

It takes place midweek during the summer holidays and always attracts a big crowd; not just families looking for a day out and hoping to see regulars like The Red Arrows and Battle of Britain Memorial Flight but enthusiasts too drawn by rare appearances by USAF Nighthawk helicopter and KC135 and fast jets from Europe.

This year the star for everyone was the newly restored Vulcan bomber tearing the sky apart with its spinetingling ‘howl’ backed by several other classic jets.

Priceless historic gems share the sky with modern military machines and some of the UK’s most gifted pilots showcase breathtaking aerobatics in one of the biggest airshows in the UK. Crown all that with the eagerly anticipated return of the Vulcan and the iconic sight of the Virgin Atlantic 747 in formation with the Red Arrows – all in fabulous clear weather - and you have a truly classic event. The Royal Air Force, the Royal Navy and the Army Air Corps all supported in strength. Even the USAF mustered a rarely seen KC-135 tanker.

Over 100 displays in a spectacular all-action cavalcade from 20 events, expertly captured by PlanesTV the UK’s most experienced airshow DVD producer. We had planned this as a Double DVD but we shot so much great material it's now on 3 DVDs and runs for nearly 6 hours!

2008 was an extraordinary year for British Airshows and will be remembered for some extreme weather conditions.

Each year RAF Waddington plays host to one of the biggest airshows in the UK. The undoubted highlight in 2008 was the return to the airshow scene of Avro Vulcan XH558. This program includes the Vulcan’s emotional return to Waddington and practise display before the event, as well as the aircraft’s main display and formation flypast with the Avro Lancaster.

The RAF Role Demonstration also provided a thrilling spectacle and material from onboard the E3D, Tornado F3s, Chinook and Apache add to the excitement.

The worlds oldest flying Spitfire displayed as did the only Mk1a Spitfire – with a cockpit minicam.

As if that were not enough the event boasted the only Hurricane Mk1, a genuine Battle of Britain veteran.

Several ‘Cold War’ jets on display complemented the new and award winning Cold War Museum hangar and the RAF supported the event in force to mark their 90th anniversary; history from the BBMF, team excellence from The Falcons and the Red Arrows, breathtaking performance from the Typhoon and an explosive Role Demonstration of RAF air power.
