Overview
Great day out weather was wet to start and not many places to seek shelter but when the sun came out it was a glorious day. Very well organized from booking tickets to arrival on the day. Disabled parking generous, disabled toilets numerous, disabled viewing area. Stewards very helpful and needed no prompting they seemed to just know what was needed and when 9/10. Everywhere was accessible except some planes but good examples to look at so didn’t feel you missed out
Transport & Parking
There was ample disabled and a led parking and a shuttle bus to take diabled people to the main show ground. I am sure there are local buses that would take you to the museum too. We had fast track access thanks to a red badge that took us out the main line of traffic straight to the car park.
Access
Access was good could go everywhere except into some airoplanes. There was disabled toilets all over the show so never to far away and no waiting. Also lots of stewards to help if you needed it. Diabled changing area which was a great idea. Everything was well sign posted. There was not a lot of seating for people most people had brought their own camping chairs. I saw a few picnic benches but that was all. Ground was a bit uneven and bumpy for people with walking difficulty
Toilets
Lots and lots and lots of both able and disabled toilets and they were colour coded so you could spot them from a distance and they were all over so no dashing or waiting and stewards on hand to help
Staff
Lots of volunteers stewards plus air cadets all very helpful
Anything else you wish to tell us?
A great day out from start to finish. Lots to see and do
