Have heard that it is a good one. Hope the weather improves, we are camping.

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

Shall be there Saturday, Sunday and Monday (barring any unforseen circumstances) in my usual AiA role.

Shame the Slovak Mig-29 has withdrawn. We really need the Mig-29OVT to appear now!

Im there!!

it is said to be the biggest international airshow in the world, not sure if that is completely correct, but hey, i loved it last year!!

hopefully i will have some better pictures than we got last time. i wish i could go for more than one day though.

A simV get together probably wouldnt work, for 3 main reasons.
1. There nay not be that many people from the V going
2. It would be next to impossible to organise, with where and times.....
3. the people who are going would be spread out over the 2 or 3 days that the show is on for.

if anyone can tell me, which is the best of the, however many, days of the show its self
would be usefull to know

cheers
