This week and last week there were airshows at Bournemouth and Eastbourne
respectively.  I happened to see the airshow at Eastbourne sea front... I
was impressed by formation aerobatics by Red Arrows team of 9 aircraft.  The
airshow also included aerobatics by Hawker Hunter, Spitfire.  I was told
that last year Vampire was the theme of vintage aircraft.  Spitfire has been
a regular feature.  Hunter flew on all the days of show at eastbourne
appearing twice. Following link shows aerobatics by Red Arrows.
