I've already pointed it out to you on Flickr, but I shall do so on here so that everyone can benefit from the information...
The Dennis Trident vehicles which are on loan to Deptford (and Washington) from Percy Main are not, so far as I know, for the airshow - they're to cover for the loss of Volvo B7/B9s which have gone to Glasgow for the Commonwealth Games. You'll note that Deptford sent five vehicles (6008/20/28/99 and 6100) to Glasgow and received five vehicles from Percy Main (3858/59/70/71/74), which further reiterates the fact it's not specifically for the airshow, and is more so due to Glasgow. Given the fact that all of Deptford's scholars interwork with normal service work, if you were to send the Volvo B7s to Glasgow without replacement, Deptford would in fact be short of vehicles. This is probably why Washington only received one vehicle too, given that most of their scholars will be standalone.
These vehicles will of course be found on the runs Deptford operate of the airshow shuttles, given that they'd only have two Vykings otherwise (one seems to be unwell at the moment, as service 9 hasn't had a full Vyking allocation for a while now).
Furthermore, Deptford does not operate every single airshow shuttle. With the exception of the above, if a Stanley bus is working service A1 - it's not on loan - it's still based at Stanley, and has come over to provide transport for the event and will be returning to Stanley that evening.
