R Cubed Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 (edited) Anyone here going to this show, we might go as spectators, as we have not been before. There is a huge list of planes flying, as well as the Vulcan XH558. www.shorehamairshow.com Edited August 15, 2009 by R Cubed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrisg Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 A nice show with plenty going on. Traffic in and out can be a problem haven't been for three years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonsfotos Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 (edited) Quick work re the traffic. It can be a problem coming in off the A27 the later you decide to arrive. The early bird etc. I arrive each day at around 8am and drive straight in. As with all shows, especially ones at slightly smaller venues, exiting can sometimes take a while. However, I have heard conflicting reports in the last few years. Some have got from crowdline to car to exit in 15 mins flat! However, if you leave with the crowd then serious delays can build up. I always hang around by the terminal until around 7pm and then just drive straight out. Less stress on me and the car! BTW: Gates open at 0800 on both days this year.

R Cubed Posted August 22, 2009 Author Share Posted August 22, 2009 (edited) I am back !!! Gone deaf though... pardon did you say something saw your lips move down to the Vulcan !!!! They DID give it some stick, for a big plane it moves about pretty well. Well got there at about 8.00 qued a bit to get in but parked quickly and was in, walked round the stalls ect and looked at the planes on the ground then watched the air display for the rest of the day left at 5.30 qued for about 30mins to get out of the car park, once on the A27 qued a bit more till we got moving.
