Why Bray?

I cant for the life of me understand why they dont hold the Air Spectacular every year like they used to, great PR for the Air Corps.  '<img'>

21 August 2005 Bray International Airshow

Its good to see that Salthill wont be the only full airshow in the Republic.. It would be great if the Air Spectacular was on every year (The last one rocked!!!)

Seeing as Bray is closer to britain than Galway, there might be more participation from the RAF and other European countries..

Matt,

Salthill is only 130 miles away from Dublin / Bray, for modern military aircraft this is only a few minutes added to their flight times, it doesn't make a blind bit of difference how far Salthill is from Dublin with regards to aircraft participation.

Actually that B-1B was on its way back to the US from an airshow in Portugal - it didn't make the trip just for Salthill.

It has struck me before that the seafront in Bray is an ideal vantage point for an air display. It has also struck me that the 800ft high Bray Head at the south end of the prospective flight line is a bit of an issue! Have the organisers mentioned this to the participants?
