and then the rain came oh boy did it rain >>

[RoadRunnerDrummerJD]

Sweet video. Nice footage as well. Whereabouts were you when you filmed this? I was at the gathering in Chedworth, Cheltenham when I saw it. And what an event too.

[steamvideo]

Not to far away from Chedworth, I was at Foss Cross on a little lane that goes to Coln St. Rogers.

I had thought about going to the old airfield at Chedy but thought all the trees and the flat lye of the land may be obstructive.

i was wid the queen that day and as soon as the parade finished it pissed it down and my uniform got soked :D couldnt even dry it in the tent cus it was leaking:P bst riat ever and bst guys iv eva met there xxx

[MewCun]

The best RIAT ever that didn't actually happen? Riiiiiiiiiiight. And what's wrong with vowels?

[Macsgrafs]

I was just up the road from you in a farmers gateway under a green fishing brolly, it did rain a bit.

[jonathanBch]

Why have you added rain into the sound??? I was there and it wasnt raining for the flypass!!.

[steamvideo]

You weren't where I was though were you?

It lashed down just as the camera was set rolling.

[jonathanBch]

Strange, i was on the airfield but quite far up away from the starting area of the flypass. Im guessing you were under one of them rain clouds that appeared every minute.

[darcula08]

i agree with you on that man. IT did sound like rain in the video. but he did say it was suppose to however....lol

[mattyweston]

I was there,Absouloutly amazing,aprt from the rain!:(

[mofobrunty]

Thanks for posting this - I missed it on TV.

For those talking about the Vulcan I believe it is is still due at the Lowestoft Airshow next Thursday and Friday (which is a free airshow as well)

[doodleuk]

the vulcan is amazing. I wasnt going to fairford this year, but i live by farnborogh airfield, so i got all the planes from fariford there.

[YawnGod]

Was that a Comet? Oh wow.

[owlz08]

i'm so pissed of that they cancelled both days cus i was lookin 4ward 2 this and lookin 4ward 2 seein the raptor and knowin our luck it wont cum nxt year!

[jpbmusic2005]

I traveled all the way from IRELAND with 2 Excited children make that 3 including me so you can understandhow i feel too!!!

Ironicly the both days turned out fine but the damage had already been done Thursday & Friday

[Reece10011995]

im gutted, i came all the way from burton today, i was 15 miles away from the show and then i heard it on the radio. it was cancelled. ive been waitin to see the vulcan since last year! oh well, ill have to wait a bit til next year now!

[JjOoNnNnYyBb]

thanks for upload i missed this as i was working :)

[11122X]

Damn its cancelled both days!

I was really looking forward to it aswell!

[steamvideo]

my sentiments entirely.

I knew I had no hope of going Saturday, bit Sunday was looking good until they made the announcement.

[kitedude137]

I hope the man upstairs was planning on going Sunday!!!! but I do think it shows that the organizers think of public safety and satisfaction over profit. I had the pleasure of getting the car stuck at silverstone a couple of years ago, the f1 was great but not getting home till the following day sucked. I would have rather of not been let in. But all that said.... fingers and everything else crossed for Sunday!!!

[dmangham]

sorry i Meant tomorrow

[dmangham]

Its true 2day is cancelled look out at 4pm to see if 2day is on

[carpcrew2006]

dont goits cancelled they are letting people know at 4pm sat if sunday will be on if you dont believe me go along and you will see i travelled up earler only 4 dissapointment and to travel back home A NIGHTMARE

[RED1028]

Thanks for uploading the video, it must have been a treat to film the biggest RAF flypast of the past 20 years!

Heading to Fairford tomorrow for the airshow, can't wait! Big question is will the Vulcan fly? I really would like to see that!
