Goodwood Revival 2011 air display times and flight path
The Days schedule and event information is now up online and the air display time are provisionally booked for the following times:-
Friday 11:05 display over track
14:55 display over track
19:00 spitfire display over goodwood house
Saturday 8:30 spifire flyby 10 mins
11:10 5 spitfire display
15:00 (The Battle of Britain Memorial Flight 2 x spitfires 1 x lancaster )
19:00 spitfire display
Sunday 8:47 spifire flyby 10 mins
11:25 (The Battle of Britain Memorial Flight 4 x spitfires 1 x lancaster )
13:00 (Spitfire tribute on track)
13:15 spitfire squadron display
17:35 Battle of Britain spitfires leave
Based on previous years there have been more flights at approx 17:00-18:00 and day closing displays.
previous years have included the red arrows but not in the last 3 years at the revival and according to my sources are not current scheduled to display at Goodwood Revival they are due to be in the Netherlands on the 16th-17th and in Newcastle and belgium on the 18th so highly unlikely to see them at Goodwood, like wise the Avro Vulcan’s last scheduled display of the year is currently 10th of september.
Click on the image below to see a larger map of the Goodwood airfield, access around the track is limited during the display sessions and visitors to the revival can not walk past the orange markers either side of the track during the displays.
However if you are not attending and would like a close up vantage point from outside the airfield you can use the orange markers as a guide as to where the aircraft will be flying the red line on the map is a public footpath so a great vantage point.
I state here and now if you stand directly under the flight path you do so at your own risk not because i said it was a good idea!
So if your questions are any of the following you should now have the answers:-
Are the red arrows flying at revival = no
Is the avro vulcan flying at revival = not likely
where is the best place to watch the displays = see above
what times are the air displays at revival 2011 = see above
what planes are flying at revival = up to 12 spitfires and other old planes ( harvard, mustangs, lancasterbomber, etc)
any further questions please email me
im very local to the track so have good information.

I have been unable to find out which planes are flying but judging by todays practice flights, there will be spitfires, and mustangs and the harvard among others, rumors are rife on the internet that lord march was the mysterious donor to the Vulcan to the skies project and that it will be making an unannouced flight though it is not listed on the vulcan website and the red arrows are listed as being in Newcastle.
As per the festival of speed, i shall be putting a few teaser pics up before i do a gallery, with the camera fixed hopefully the pictures should be a lot better then the festival ones!

Vickers Vimy Goodwood Revival ~ Last Flight
The Vickers vimy, a British heavy bomber developed during the First World War, the Vimy was both a successful military and civilian aircraft, flying into the history books on excursions to Capetown, Australia and the first ever flight across the Atlantic (piloted by Alcock and Brown) in 1919. This replica of the original aeroplane performed its last public display flight at on Sunday 20th September at the Goodwood revival 2009. However im sure that was said of the Avro Vulcan at one point so you never know, it left Goodwood airfield bound for Brooklands Museum in Surrey to live out its remaining days.
unfortunately the scheduled flight for the day went of plan and i was in the wrong place as it flew over an hour early over shooting towards the sun on a grey sky making for a not so brilliant picture, none the less its still ok ish.
Enjoy
Wayne.

1929 Alfa Romeo 6c 1750 @ Goodwood Revival 2009… Going Back in time
Well i was sat on a wall up at Goodwood a few hours after the Vulcan had flown over waiting for the “all warbirds” display, that was cancelled so in the end i was waiting for something that wasn’t going to happen. While waiting i managed to get some photo’s of the vimmy vintage aeroplane but also decided to capture some nice cars as they were leaving the revival. Far to often do i see people flocking to photograph ferrari’s, lamborghini’s and other “nice” expensive sports cars many paying little attention to the classics and really that’s what the revival is all about and although its a nice car and i wouldn’t say no to one if it was offered but the aston martin db9 has got a little common around these parts and on sunday almost every 5th car was a db9 (driven by a lot of people who would loved to have posed for a picture) sorry not this time….
So what we have here after some research is a nice example of a 1929 Alfa Romeo 6c 1750 as far as i can tell, this particular model had an engine capacity of 1752cc producing 46bhp with a top speed of 68mph (going about 30 went he went past me).
I have used a colour & black & white image here to show this one, as some of the scenery (traffic cones and car park attendant in yellow jacket) detracts somewhat from the beauty of the car.
Below is a mock up (photoshop edit) of how the car might have looked if i had taken the same photo on film back in the 50′s
And finally we have another photoshop edit of a scene that i captured just outside the main gates at Goodwood circuit of a mobile canteen from world war 2
if it wasn’t for a modern van in the background and a chap not wearing the uniform it would be easy to pass this off as an original photo such was the detail in their re creation of the time.
Enjoy
Wayne

Avro Vulcan XH-558 – Goodwood Revival 2009
I vividly remember standing on a raised bank by the river Lavant back in 1982 as a boy of 9 my mother standing next to me and the noise of this awesome amazing aircraft, i have waited 27 years to see this beauty in the sky above my head sadly my mum was not with me today but she was in my heart, and i will never forget the joy in her face jumping up and down in excitement when it flew over it gave me a shiver and a chill then as it did today, thank you to all at the vulcan to the sky trust that have made a cherished memory come to life again, long live the vulcan.
Shot from here (belated thanks to the land owner).
Some information about the Avro Vulcan and what makes it so special designed in 1947, measuring 97ft or 29.59 meters long (that’s 2 1/2 buses) with a wingspan of 99ft or 30.18 meters with a top speed of 627mph (just under mach 1) so successful was the technology involved in the design of these aircraft the engines were later scaled up to power Concorde.
All in all there were 136 Vulcan bombers built comprising of 2 prototypes 45 mk 1 and 89 mk 2 although only 16 remain in existence in museums there are 4 nose sections that were kept however XH558 is the ONLY fully working vulcan at this present time, and finally if you thought your car was high maintenance or not good miles per gallon this baby burns about £1000 of fuel every 20 mins.!!!! not for nipping to the shops.
I wonder if i will ever get to photograph the Vulcan and Red arrows in the same picture another 27 years perhaps?
Enjoy
Wayne
