First GliderFX 2012 Display Dates – Flygfesten and Shoreham

Saturday, February 25th, 2012

We are very excited to reveal the first few shows for GliderFX this year.

Our highlight of 2009 was Dala Jarna’s Flygfesten in central Sweden and we have teamed up with the Scandinavian Airshow team, lead by Jacob Hollander who will provide his Aerobatic AgCat towplane known as ‘Catwalk”, hopefully complete with skycats!

GliderFX will be marking its 15th Anniversary with a display at Shoreham Airshow in West Sussex. The airshow is organised by the Shoreham-by-Sea Branch of the Royal Air Forces Association and has so far raised £1.7million for the charity.

We are planning some very special one-off displays marking some important 2012 themes – watch this space for further announcements!
