The lucky 50 will watch the air show from Raytheon's viewing platform at the show - the highlight of the year for companies in the aerospace, defence , space and security industries.

"Farnborough is one of the most thrilling events in aviation," said Pam Wickham, Raytheon vice president of Corporate Affairs . "This year, we're inviting aviation enthusiasts to share in the excitement."
Raytheon will allow Tweetup registrants to sign up with a young guest aged 11-21.
"What better way to encourage these young future engineers than by giving them the thrill of a lifetime at the airshow?" Wickham said.
