A couple more additions have been announced in the form of the Norwegian Spitfire Foundation's Hawker Sea Fury T20 and the AeroSuperBatics Wingwalkers.

Bournemouth Air Festival is the biggest of the UK's seaside airshows with four days of flying and other entertainment on the towns beaches and cliff top promenades. As well as four traditional daytime flying displays, Bournemouth also hosts three "Night Air" shows with the UK best pyrotechnic teams attending each year. The show is always well supporting by the UK military with aircraft and ships and this year even saw flypasts from a US Navy P-8A Poseidon operating from CTF-67 based in Sicily, Italy. Another feature of recent Air Festivals has been some sizable participation from the Classic Jet community and this year was no different with the mainland UK display debut of the Swedish Air Force's Historic Flight's SAAB J-35J Draken. Other highlights included the Ultimate Fighters which teamed up with the Blades on the final day for a memorable series of flypasts. A full review of the Air Festival can be found HERE.
