Sky Drive 2023 (presented by Airshow London)
Great past couple of updates. Shame I'll miss the Friday but I'll be in the Green Zone on Saturday and Blue on Sunday. Looking like this is gonna be an epic.

London never disappoints, you'll get your moneys worth.

Boy, London seems to put on an unreal show every year.
I have a program from the 1997 Abbotsford Airshow (I was there but didn't make it to the airshow as I fell sick), it featured flybys by most if not all fast movers in the USAF inventory. Good on London for bringing back this concept, after TAC demos seemingly took over air displays around 2000.
Excited to plan a trip out to see the show in a future year.
Enjoy!

Hoping one of the 173rd FW F-15Cs is 78-0543 the David R. Kingsley special. Wouldn't mind the Vandy 1 black VX-9 F/A-18F 166673 either, seen it before but it was all grey back then

The Airshow London app seems to show new performers and aircraft updates. A CF-188 and a CT-156 have been added to the performers list and the KC-135, KC-46, and MH-65 are no longer listed as flying display. Is this new information or a glitch/mistake?

The App also lists the MH-53 as flying as well.
The RCAF stuff usually firms up a week before the show.
I'm sure we'll get an update soon on their website and social media

App is showing quite a bit of stuff added for static. Several Hercs and maybe 2 more KC135? bunch of Canadian stuff as well.
Canadian C-130/CF-18 refueling demo maybe too
Possibly C-17/KC-135 joint demo?
The "plane schedule" for each day on the app is bit confusing as well compared to what the show has said is happening. We'll see

I’m assuming the plane schedules are mistakes, as so much is missing from them. No B-2, F-15s, USN F-18, MC-130, and etc. I find it hard to believe that the plane schedules are out when a decent amount of performers on the app haven’t even been officially announced yet.Bingofuel wrote: ↑Thu Aug 31, 2023 6:32 pm App is showing quite a bit of stuff added for static.

I wonder if the Sea Fury will make it, I know it cancelled for Airshow Atlantic because of a fuel tank issue. P51 Double Trouble Two, same owners, also cancelled for Airshow Atlantic.

Static display has really shrunk.
