Ben Dunnell and his right-hand-man, George Bacon, will be continuing their long-standing airshow commentary relationship to welcome spectators and guide them through the jam-packed programme of the inaugural Scampton Airshow this September.

The pair are hugely experienced and their commentaries provide both an entertaining and informative accompaniment to the action taking place in the air and on the ground.
