2009

The Windermere Air Show is organised by the Rotary Club of Windermere in conjunction with the RAF.  The event raises money of local Charities.

The event is held on the Glebe, Bowness-on-Windermere over the last weekend of July.  The 2008 Air Show was attended by a near record crowd.             

The 2009 Air Show was on the 25th/26th July.

Following on from the Air Show, Rotary commissioned Cumbria Tourism to conduct a Visitor Survey and Economic Impact Analysis.  This report is below together with a letter from David Thomas, Airshow Coordinator and Treasurer.
