Information About

Sunderland International Airshow





AFFILIATIONS

Durham Tees Valley Airport is used as a base for most of the flying displays, compared with previous use of Newcastle Airport , this is possibly due to the fact that Tees Valley has fewer flights resulting in faster turnarounds for aircraft departing and arriving from the airshow.
In One Northeast Livery.]]
Newcastle International Airport was used up until 2007, the only aircraft in the 2007 show to use Newcastle were the C-130K Hercules of the RAF Falcons Parachuting team, and the Eastern Airways BAe Jetstream 41 North East England Livery and the Red Arrows . The organisers stopped using this as the main airport due to the fact that they have a tight flight schedule with many more low cost flights departing now then in previous years.


THE GREEN AIRSHOW

In 2007 Sunderland City Council teamed up with Gentoo and CarbonNeutral North East to reduce and off-set all the emissions caused by staging the two-day show.
There was a Green Village with many environmental stalls.
