300,000 British jobs rely on this event each year so what did the BBC show all afternoon? Golf!

Inside Story - The Farnborough Airshow

[pollyanna]

I love air shows. The only one I normally attend is the Eastbourne one. It's a free event held on the sea front and attracts thousands of visitors each year.

What a pity the BBC showed golf instead of the Farnborough one - but typical. Sport seems to be taking over the tv lately.

Thanks for the warning Dutchy - something else I definitely won't be watching
