Further on the A380 discussion, I heard the A380 will only be on static display (no cabin walk-through). Anyone know otherwise?

That just made my week Mick!! Thanks.
But I'm going to really push my luck and ask do you know if they are going to be flying in the middle of the flying display or end? Hopefully not the beginning because my flight doesn't get me there until 11!!!!

Thanks

Gerard

I read somewhere only arriving on Sat morning & then departing around noon.

Anyway no Walk Through. Static only.

I reckon you would be pretty safe Gerard after 11am. I've put some photos up on the other forum of today's display. See

Hope you like them.

Looking at the flying display program runsheet it appears as if the B1B is not flying tomorrow. I am not aware of any tech fault.

Are you able to tell me, even in general terms, what time the B-1 is meant to be flying on the Sunday at all?
