are the displays on each day going to be the same or are they going to spread over the two days!

[joey1]

Hi Pilatus

I mailed Coleraine Borough Council asking that very question no reply as of yet!
the only "one day" events are
Red arrows are displaying Saturday only and there will be a ceremonial poppy drop on Sunday as for the rest of the line up i'm assuming both days but with only 4 hours of display time they may have to do a rethink extending the display time is one option!

sorry that i couldn't be more help!

Ill post any reponce as soon as i recieve it

Hi all

I received a mail from coleraine Borough Council regarding my query about display line up on each day.

June McDowell from the coleraine Borough Council stated that the aircraft line up will be simliar for both days with the exception of The Red Arrows (Saturday Only ) and a ceremonial dispersement of poppys from the Antonov AN-2 on sunday only

Since this will be simliar to Salthill i wonder were the aircraft will be taking off from?

[pilatus]

[daleoran]

Enjoyable day but not great for photography '> Here's a few

[pilatus]

some nice shots!il try to get a few of my pics up tomorrow!the weather wasnt ideal as you said though it was still worth the trip!was dissapointed with the aircorps casa display!they didnt go anywhere near the coast at all, just did a few circuits over sea and that was it! also the hercules would have been a nice treat, but it didnt make it because of operational commitments!
