History
In 1997, Mike Higgins became the display organiser.
In 2009, HMS Ocean (L12) was present, and participated in the event.
The 2011 air display was canceled, due to poor visibility, shortly before it was due to start. Most aircraft which were due to take part had already arrived on the island.
