HW Portsmouth 13:45
Bournemouth Airshow and PSSA Studland Bay Rally
Saturday 2nd September 2023
The Airshow will be held over Bournemouth Pier from lunchtime on the Saturday 2nd September, so anyone coming from the Solent will have a great view heading to Studland with the tide under them.
The planes usually approach the Air show from the Studland direction.
Our very own Firefly display team pilot Nigel Reid (P275 Margaret) will try to find us and give us a fly past in Studland.
Please watch where you are mooring as there is a voluntary mooring restriction area in Studland Bay, we will be mooring under the cliffs at Middle Beach, outside the Seagrass area (see below).
The proposal is to meet at Middle Beach (under the palm tree) at 18.00 ish for an 18.30 Picnic (BYO picnic).
If the weather in Studland Bay is not suitable to moor overnight, there will be an incoming tide into Poole Harbour all evening, so we will be able to moor overnight in the harbour.
Some of the air show attractions
- The Red Arrows
- Typhoon
- Battle of Britain Memorial Flight
- Air displays (including Chinooks)
- And our very own Firefly display team pilot Nigel Reid
Radio commentary for the air show can be found on Hot Radio 102.8MHz
Hope to see you there.
Cheers
Denis & Jennie Brophy
