I heard the announcement  on the radio today  

Is this the "definitive " line up or is there room for additions   It would of been nice to get the A380



Is this what the IAA had in mind ?

I must learn not to jump the gun and read  websites properly before asking stupid questions  

30 aircraft  

On top of Liberty hall ! now that's a prime viewing site  

[Vulcan]

Will be nice if they all turn up and maybe worth a trip across the country. Problem is, I think caution should be exercised as none have been confirmed as participants. It says at the top "We are delighted to confirm* that the following aircraft have all been invited to participate at FlightFest"

Always with the negativity!

The B17 Flying Fortress is confirmed and I have had confirmation that the Grace Spitfire Tr9 ML407 ex Air Corps 162 is also coming and will be flown by Richard Grace.
Looking forward to seeing 162 again.

I assume that all participants will be departing and arriving from Dublin Airport and if so, it  would be worth heading over to Dublin airport on the day to capture good shots of the display aircraft rather than making the trip to the city

Looking forward to 162 in her "New Clothes"  and the last time I saw a B-17 up close and personal was Fairyhouse I think 1980 or was it 81 it was a treat for my "conformation " .......



And Yes I was wearing my suit on the day too!

Depending on the aircraft, it's possible that Weston or Baldonnel may be used and some aircraft might just fly by without landing in Ireland at all.
