RIAT cancelled this Saturday!
Heads up to anyone travelling to Fairford tomorrow.
Fairford is off tomorrow. Heavy rain in the area has left the airfield and car parks unsafe.

Nightmare! 
I was down there this morning, the public car parks were already pretty boggy and then it's lashed down really heavily all afternoon and evening here too. Can't see how it'll be dried out in time for Sunday either....
Bugger, was really looking forward to going - as always.

Loch Lomond? You lucky bugger, I'm missing my summer trip to Scotland, we usually go in June but didn't this year. Did anyone watch the 90 plane flypast from Fairford on the telly this afternoon?

Just got back from Fairford,was in a park and view getting ready to camp for the night and had a phone call to say it was cancelled ! The organisers in the park and view were saying it wasn't cancelled as they hadn't heard anything !
To top it all off,I got our Vectra Sri stuck in the mud trying to get back out of the field,a group of kids only around ten years pushed us out
I can't see that it'll go ahead Sunday either to be honest

Really sorry to see that about the cancellation. So disappointing for those who were going and it must be terrible for those running it to see all the work in the organisation wasted.

Been hit with a grumpy stick today? See the other thread. There are justified and very understandable reasons for this...
