i thought that might be the case. whats happening about the lightning is the hanger door being opened? i may also end up as vulcan crew or jack of all trades or is that not going ahead – unless your hogging the limelight 😛

just to add a further comment to what alex has said

the event will start around 1830 hours

due to the weather, the puccara will not be going outside as it will sink!

however, other exhibits will be on display

and alex will be dressed as a crew member for the BOFORS! 😀

Just a quick final post to remind any interested parties that the photoshoot is on tomorrow (wednesday 25th), the weather may have not been kind in the recent days but we hope that wont have any impact on attendence. I would recommend that sensible footwear is worn (wellies may be a good idea) as the field walking down to the vulcan can end up like a lake as can the pathway over to hanger 1 which itself may be rather wet. any question please feel free to contact me.

many thanks
alex

unfortunately not. sadly all a/c will require external lighting as i believe all the electrical systems will need to be checked over having lain dormant for so long. as for living miles away we hope this will be the firstof many such events so i will make it a priority to let flypast users know in advance as i understand that a weekday night and just over 2weeks notice isnt really enough to make arrangements. at this point i’d like to reiterate we’re always looking for new users on our forum (see above) and always looking for new museum members.

thanks again alex (spock)

Have you got its unique nacelle mounted spotlights sparked up yet?
Wish I could make the event, but bloomin miles away.
