RAF Cosford Air Show tickets still up for grabs
Tickets remain on sale for this year's RAF Cosford Air Show – but organisers said they are still expecting a capacity 55,000 crowd.
Sales for the event have been slower than last year, when the event was sold out by the end of May. The anomaly was has been blamed on a different "pattern of sales".
The event, which is ticket only with no entry on the gate, is still expected to bring long queues to surrounding roads.
Clive Elliott, air show director, said: "We're not sure why it is but the pattern of sales is different than last year. We are sure we are going to see the same crowd as last year but people have left it later to buy tickets."
The ever popular Red Arrows will once more be the headline act at Cosford.
Mr Elliott said: "Plans are going absolutely fantastically. We have already started to put the airfield together, it will take us three or four days, then we will have a great event on Sunday and it will take us 12 hours to take it back down again.
"By the end of Monday it won't look like there has been an air show."
The show site will be open from 8.30am and will close at about 7pm. The flying displays themselves will start at noon and end at about 5.30pm.
