[Hihonyr8811]

C-160 and Dak, I think I may pass out
Might give Waddington a miss though and watch from Fiskerton airfield (if 20 is in use).


Anyone know the frequency for Air show FM?
Says on the official facebook site 87.9fm, but none of my radios goes below 88 and arn't picking anything up, and normally I get it very clear at home (it's about the only radio station I ever listen too out of the car other than Kerrang on my digital radio).

[Mayfly]

It is 87.9 I was listening to it on in the car this morning - I think they've changed it, wasn't it 104 something last year?

[Hihonyr8811]

Yeah it was as I saved it to the cars radio so I could listen again


All I have to do now is try to get the needle to the far end of the dial

Really, who allocated that rubbish number to them

[Mayfly]

Just tried my radio - my radio can pick up the frequency but all I can get is static - I'll have to go sit the car



stern words needed I think!!!

[Hihonyr8811]

I'm just thinking of sitting in our car too

lol especially as out of 3 radios none of them go below 88
How is that possible

I don't think they have switched it on yet Pam............ D'oh.

[Mayfly]

ooo the radio in my car must crystal balls then!!!

[Nickolas]

No, the bloke you married has those.

[Mayfly]

I always get totally disorientated at Waddington - I've just had to rotate google earth 180 deg to work our where I was & what end they used last year I can sit here & I know where everything is - but as soon as I step on the base it all goes to cock!!!


Last day tomorrow 23rd June for ordering tickets on line!!

Proof indeed if any were needed that you are ALL WOMAN!

[Mayfly]

I've never have problems before - it's just Waddington!!!!

[Xplumberlives]

Yeah yeah!

[Mayfly]

Helen, if you get the frequency they erected an additional aerial yesterday - so I can now pick the Airshow prog up in my house.. but one radio has static the other is perfect reception.

[Hihonyr8811]

Will go and try it now

Woo hoo, got it
Please thank them for the extra transmitter

I only knew it was Airshow FM because of the cheesy music

However, to get it I had to balance the rafio on my bed, so all I have to do now is remember the exact spot
