2009 Airshows
Nimrod at Waddington RAF Waddington in Lincolnshire hosts the major RAF Airshow, which is very popular, and usually held in June. The display includes many modern RAF aircraft, foreign aircraft, and display teams.

RAF Waddington is a fully operational unit of No 3 Group within RAF Strike Command and is home to the RAF's airborne Intelligence, Surveillance, Target Acquisition and Reconnaissance (ISTAR) aircraft. 3 resident squadrons, No 8, No 23 and No 51 operate the Boeing E-3D Sentry and Nimrod R1 aircraft in these roles. The E-3D aircraft of Nos 8 and 23 Squadrons also constitute the UK Component of the NATO Airborne Early Warning Force. The newly re-formed 5(AC) Sqn, expected to receive its Sentinel R1 aircraft soon, will operate in the ASTOR (Airborne Stand-Off Radar) role.
