Anybody going this year.? I’m heading up on Sunday
Which is the best car park.? I’d like to be on the beach, but looking at the event info, as I’m coming from the south, I won’t be able to get on it. I thought about the Lancaster lounge, is it worth it? As I’ve never been before I don’t know the lay of the land so to speak.
I usually park for free on a residential street about half a mile away, or on the big retail car park next to it (in front of the cinema I’m sure it’s 5 hours free). What gives you the impression you won’t get on? Should be fine if there early.
Never done the lounge so can’t comment on that, but I usually go down on the beach right up to the barrier and find a spot.
I wouldn't even think of driving in. I'd park somewhere to the south and take the Merseyrail train in. Easier, quicker and cheaper.
Lancaster Lounge on the pier is £75!!! Each.
There's a thought that using the pier as foreground gives "better" shots.
Just a heads up if you’re planning on going again Tom, they’ve started enforcing new rules on this car park. It’s free if you get your ticket validated at one of the restaurants etc on the Plaza however I think you can still pay if you wanted to use it. I can only imagine how busy it’ll be up there if the car park is even still open. I’ve not been to the air show for a couple of years but they had pedestrianised a lot of the front when I last went.
Parking away and walking may be the easiest for a quick getaway, one year I sat in the car for an hour before even moving in the car park. Took about 2 hours to get home and I only live 12 miles away

Could be quieter. Depends how many bought tickets before the match was fixed. A hard one to call.
Red Arrows are flying now. It's hard work trying to watch them from the bedroom window and watch the footy in the lounge!!!
They've gone now.Mirrors!!!!
How much damage can a squadron of Merlin engines do to a roof? They've just gone over here a lot lower than 400'. Don't think they've landed; think they are just showing off to their mates.
I'll check on my way out tomorrow.
But that noise! Nothing like it.
