Sywell Airshow 2024 | The Highlights

This weekend saw the debut of the Sywell Airshow, an event anticipated eagerly by so many aviation enthusiasts due to the nature of the flying display line-up as well as the location.
The flying display featured numerous warbirds from the UK and in Europe, including Spitfire RM927, The Flying Bulls' P-51, F4U, B-25 & P-38, as well as aerobatic displays from a Gamebird GB1and 46 Aviation's Boeing Stearman. The display was opened by a unique flypast of Mustang, Thunderbolt and F-35A Lightning II, the full video of which can be found here - • Sywell Airshow 2024 | ...
The daytime display concluded with a performance by a 9-ship of Supermarine Spitfires of various marks. A few passes in formation before breaking off into a tail-chase - a wonderful way to end the first day of the air show.

Isn’t this just incredible to witness the sight and sound of these historical aircraft to display at an airshow, the sound of the WW2 aircraft are just out of this world!!

Thank you for sharing this. I really appreciate the effort as it provides some smashing memories of a great day.

[@aaron0288]

Fantastic video. That pan over to the three Mustang’s coming in to save the Thunderbolt was superb.

[@petergengePTRproductions]

Looks like a replacement for the flying legends show at duxford finally.

[@user-xg1sd1gj3n]

Congratulations on a safe, professional show featuring a wide variety of fine aircraft. Very professionally done. I was in both the CAF and the Valiant Air Command and was very impressed with this video. Wery well done.

[@birdmanmarbella]

Brings back memories from the 90s of the classic Fighter Meets. Well done to everyone for putting on a great show.

[@GastonBouchaud]

[@davidct2406]

Went on the Sunday and we both had a great day and of course the Red Arrows flew their display that day as well.

[@albertroberts8387]

Absolutely fantastic!!!

[@paulrobson3413]

Loved it there on Saturday got the sunburn to prove it

[@andrewharrington7706]

Thanks!

[@colinmartin2921]

[@edutaimentcartoys]

[@tungteo1190]

Thanks

[@brucewood608]

Great video filming

[@eamo106]

Just Awesome ! Better than any USA display I have seen !

[@richardmarshall4322]

Looks like its based on the old 'Flying Legends' show at Duxford

[@terrym3837]

I went on Saturday and it was a great show well organised some great planes in the air what's not to like

[@nan91jp65]

Until I'm up close I always forget just how big the P-47 is

[@peterfreeman6677]

I couldn't watch the bi-plane wing-walking. If I'd been there I think I would have made a bee-line for the refreshment tent until it was over ...

[@shootfirst2097]

The look of the P-47 is, like, how does that thing even fly? As much as I love ALL the WWII prop fighters, I think my favorite fighter is the F-86 Sabre

[@stevena9305]

Raw, brutal power!

[@andrewwaller5913]

2000hp engine 😂

[@jdw174]

If you get the chance, read the book "Thunderbolt" by Robert S. Johnson. He flew the "Jug" with the 56th during WW2. It will give you a very good look at how well it could fly and the punishment it could aborb.

[@olspanner]

Thunderbolt = Huge! Wonder if today's youngsters, will see today's aircraft, flying in 8o years time??!!

[@CDB8939]

The 2 x Spitfires at 25:00 are Griffon powered

[@dagreeno]

Was not expecting 12:32! Did it actually fly over the crowd?!

[@CDB8939]

No, it flew along the runway line

[@dagreeno]

@@CDB8939 Quite the confusing angle!

[@ianstewartaviation2634]

Fantastic show I went on the Sunday great layout on the ground and very nice displays well done Sywell 👍👍🇬🇧

[@stevena9305]

Flew over the correct display line as briefed. Looks close as the thing is huge!

[@jonathanland2218]

James Holland’s comments count be better. He’s was describing the Hawker Tempest that wasn’t at the show - when the Hawker Fury was flying! Come on James, keep up. Lingy was just the best at commenting - his Red 10 experience shone through.

[@andrewwaller5913]

JH knows his stuff, his books are superb.

[@JakeCole1453]

Holland gives the impression of being well informed but he's a terrible blow hard.

[@james426able1]

What happened to the other P51 that were due to display?

[@AviationHighlights]

Was unable to fly due to an engine problem

[@andrewwaller5913]

It flew on Sunday with the other 3

[@johncrispin2118]

Nice aircraft and displays thanks … Was this in the USA ? … ok I know where Sywell is ….

[@andrewwaller5913]

Sywell, Northamptonshire UK🇬🇧

[@alexabodd1237]

Did you not film the rest?

[@AviationHighlights]

The light was not favourable for the evening show unfortunately, but it was a nice watch!

[@NWales45Kilo]

Hear that ? ..no music!!...just engines...Brits know how to do it...thank you

[@bradleywilkinson8882]

All that machinery for killing back then.
