Queens Birthday Flypast 2009

Has anyone got any information as to which aircraft are carrying out the flypast on 13th June this year, it's difficult to find out.
I notice that the BBMF are due to take part, though I don't know which of their aircraft will be flying, I presume that there's no chance that the Vulcan would be allowed to take part, even assuming it was ready in time.
Last years 90th anniversary flypast was most impressive and will be a difficult and expensive act to follow, any one any knowledge.

Although, I'll probably be at my now usual spot on top of the middle 'grass pryamid' alongside the A40 - great viewing point
