There are now eight cockpits booked in for CockpitsWest at Halfpenny Green on 16th September, ranging from the Boulton Paul Overstrand to the German Phantom. A number of interesting aircraft have alreadyalso booked in, weather permitting, for the associated Fly-in, including an SE.5A replica, a Hatz Biplane and a Jackeroo. As cockpiteers will be sited in front of the control tower, they will have a good view of all arrivals. Anyone wishing to book their cockpit/display. and/ or a free aerojumble stall, please pm me.

We have secured the use of a hangar or the aerojumble, though cockpiteers/ aerojumblers will have the choice on the day whether they go in there, or outside in front of the control tower, where they will get a better view of the flying. There will also be a display of aircraft in the hangar, with a Boulton Paul ‘Museum for the day’. If anyone requires a table for their use in the hangar, they will have to book it in advance, as we won’t have any on site
