On the RIAT website we can see we will have more than 21 sea king helicopters in the Fly Navy 100 formation "Seaking HU5 (*21)". Is this a typo or correct ?

This formation will depart also from Fairford or will they fly in from another field for example Yeovilton ??

Regardzzz

This was a typo. It's now changed into x2. I don't think they even have 21 Sea King HU5's!

As you can read on the blog at airtattoo.com, by both RIAT and USAF Air Combat Command: absolutely not

tickets

Post by Jens Matin »

Got a little confused while looking for tickets to see the flying display... Do the admission tickets give the opportunity to see the display decently? Or are 'Jubilee Garden' or 'Park and view' tickets required?
I just couldn't figure that out...

You can see the display decently. The Jubilee garden is a fenced off part along the runway (in the middle of the runway if my memory serves me well). But you're standing on the same distance as the people over there in the jubilee garden do.

Park and view are not valid on the show days, only for arrival and departure. The Jubilee Garden was always situated a bit back from the crowdline, for where admission tickets will do. The extra from the Jubilee Garden is a deckchair and being fed by English food (no breakfast).
