I've just seen that there may not be an airshow at Windermere this year, but at least there will be a 'rotary' day to be held on Sunday 29th July. Strange because the last i heard is that the Walney and Windermere shows were going to be held on alternate years, looks like this has possibly fallen through, i will do some digging and see what i can find out.

I was in touch with the Windermere guys late last year and they confirmed what you say here that they still intend to do something and have in fact put in a request to Strike Command for RAF participation which like you say goes against what we have all heard about Walney and Windermere going alternate years.

The Red Arrows will be displaying on the 29th July only. Apparently its their favourite location too as its totally different from any other display they perform.

Time to update the situation, the Reds will perform at Mid-day, other displays will include the Tutor, Tucano and Hawk as well as a S&R Demo. Negotiations are going on to secure the F-86 sabre from Duxford, that will be at Sunderland that weekend.

Has any one got any 'accurate' info on what is definatly flying next week cheers Chris Hi Chris, Accurate information seems to be at a premium for Windermere. I still don't have a proper line-up, just that the Reds will be there for 1200 on the Sunday. I'll head across to the west shore for around 1030 and see what happens.... Graeme
