Clacton Air Show 2018

The Clacton Air show website gives more details, although you may have to buy a programme for actual displays. I've jus looked my self as considering anchoring off to view.
 
I'm determined to anchor off this time. Last year there was absolutely no breeze in the morning and I ghosted Vim up the shingle at East Mersea Stone to collect the handbrake (SWMBO). No engine so everything set on a moderate flood tide but to no avail. I think we'd drifted backwards almost to Alresford Creek before I gave-up and went to Rowhedge pub instead. I think I heard my first aeroplane after the second pint!

Are the jetskis really that much of a pain?
 
I can only say that last year there were about 20 jetskis/wetbikes and from the shore, it looked very unpleasant, weaving in and out... If anyone who was there can comment, "make it so"
 
Hmmm... not the best weather for it today, hope the spectators can see something.

Edit: The rain and murk cleared in time I believe.
