Farnborough International Airshow 2026 Day One flying display: Times and aircraft
The flying display at the Farnborough International Airshow gets underway at 13:10 on Monday, 20 July, with almost three hours of military, commercial and next-generation aircraft taking to the skies.
Day One begins with the British Army’s Red Devils parachute display team, followed by the F-35A demonstration and Vertical Aerospace’s VX4 electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft.
The afternoon programme will also feature the Airbus A350 XWB, Embraer C-390 Millennium and Bombardier Global 8000, alongside fast-jet appearances from the Italian Air Force Eurofighter Typhoon and Czech Air Force L-159.
The Battle of Britain Memorial Flight’s C-47 Dakota will provide the historic element of the display before the United Arab Emirates’ Fursan Al Emarat aerobatic team closes the programme.
All times are local and remain subject to operational, weather and air traffic requirements.
