Lee opened up his 2021 review by saying &#8220;For 2021 the Midlands Air festival returned to its original home on Ragley Hall estate in Warwickshire, a beautiful countryside setting. The striking parkland layout made an idyllic backdrop for both a mass Hot Air Balloon launch, model aircraft flying and a full flying display of aerobatics, barn-storming and historic warbirds.&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>On top of all this there is also fireworks display and an array of ground entertainment. On closing his review, Lee said &#8220;This really was a great effort by the team, an excellent flying display, well-organised Hot Air Balloon Launch and an impressive line-up of model aircraft. All this achieved under the clouds of Covid-19, I cannot wait to see what the organisers do for 2022 \u2013 I have already packed my tent, I am going all weekend!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This is Airscene&#8217;s most recent review of Midlands Air Festival as due to ill health this year&#8217;s reviewer couldn&#8217;t attend &#8211; to read it in full visit: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.airscene.co.uk\/airshow-reviews\/Midlands-Air-Festival-2021.php\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.airscene.co.uk\/airshow-reviews\/Midlands-Air-Festival-2021.php<\/a><\/p>\n<p>1st Prize in this year&#8217;s calendar competition now stands as follows:<\/p>\n<p>Royal International Air Tattoo &#8211; pair of public entry tickets for RIAT 2023 (\u00a3114)<br \/>\n30 minute Trial Lesson in Ikarus C42 Microlight courtesy of Phoenix Aviation (\u00a3105)<br \/>\nPair of tickets for Midlands Air Festival 2023 (\u00a352)<\/p>\n<p>For full rules and to enter this year&#8217;s competition, visit: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.airscene.co.uk\/competitions\/2023calendar.php\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.airscene.co.uk\/competitions\/2023calendar.php<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Airscene 2023 Calendar Competition, which closes at midnight on Friday 30th September received a prize confirmation today from Midlands Air Festival &#8211; a pair of tickets will be added to 1st Prize.
