We’d like to take this opportunity to introduce our first Kent Spitfire VIP weekend taking place at Audley End on 29th and 30th March 2008.
Each day is limited to just 40 guests with the aim of giving you a unique, behind the scenes, personalised experiance and an unrivaled opportunity to get up close and personal to an airworthy Spitfire.
The full day event will be staged at the excellent Vintage Fabrics facility at Audley End, a venue which witnessed the re-birth of many of todays airworthy Spitfires.
A freshly made tea or coffee and a warm welcome from the team awaits you upon arrival. Several special guests have been lined up and a detailed presentation on Spitfire restoration and operation.
After lunch, provided by ourselves, you will have the opportunity to inspect The Kent Spitfire as well as other aircraft which include the Piper L4 Cub and Me 108 as well as an indepth look at some of the other aircraft undergoing maintenance or restoration.
A few tickets are available via our website at http://www.kentspitfire.co.uk or email us at [EMAIL=”merlin.promo@btinternet.com“]merlin.promo@btinternet.com[/EMAIL]
Regards
The Kent Spitfire Team

Just wondering if anyone attended, unfortunately I couldnt make it myself. Any pics anyone? And also wondering did TA805 return to Biggin Hill this afternoon after the tragic crash of the jet?

Cracking Kent Spitfire website, I think i might have to give this day a go….I got the Kent model which is very nice so can’t see much harm in spending a day with the real thing.
🙂 anyone else going?

This is the first event of it’s type we have tried using this format and getting the ‘cost vs value’ balance is a tricky one.
We felt by keeping the numbers low (40 tickets per day) so as to provide a very personalised, upclose experiance, also providing lunch and refreshments all day, that we may have achieved this.
Any feedback however is greatly appreciated, please email [email]merlin.promo@btinternet.com[/email]
Many Thanks

Damn right, Bruce! I was lucky enough to be in Saffron Walden when the first four (IIRC) Spitfires out of Audley End were being air tested. Lovely!
