Speaking to even bosses they said:

"How much did you enjoy the 2015 Scottish Airshow ? Was it worth £1 or more ? 120,000 people watched the Scottish airshow. It is a very complex and expensive event to bring to life. The company running the airshow is a not for profit company. The sponsors were very generous this year but your donations can make a huge difference to making the 2016 Scottish Airshow even better. Say thanks for the 2015 airshow and YES PLEASE to another one in 2016."

How will the money be spent?:

"£1 from everyone who watched the 2015 Scottish Airshow would raise £120,000. That would allow us to be confident we could go ahead and start on the 2016 Scottish Airshow. If we were to beat our target it would be awesome and every £ donated would go straight to bringing you the best airshow we can design."
