-Also in the static are Sea Harrier, Lynx 3/7/8 and Sea King 4, Seahawk, Sea Fury and Skyraider etc are also due to fly in a short display for the anniversary of the RNR Air Branch also being held at VL tomorrow. Anyone wishing to fly in a historic aircraft can turn up on the day at the Fleet Air Arm Museum and ask the ticket office staff to put you in touch with the organisers who will be happy for you to pay on the day. Its all in a good cause to help keep the RNHF in the air.

-I hope the wind drops a bit for them. I also hope the Moths can find some grass, otherwise it could get tres sporty!

The aircraft giving the flights are operating off the grass light aircraft strip which runs alongside 09/27 at the western end of the airfield, the static park is on Y dispersal behind the museum, sadly the forecast does not look good.
