I was but the bike is in a million pieces and still buggered and I ended up having an old friend from Brighton turn up on the train (no transport). We did look into taking a bus there or hiring a car but it just wasn't working so no, I didn't go. Thats officially NO airshows for the whole of this year for me now ~x(
