LLA/BBMF Members Day 26/09/04

This Sunday will be my first LLA Members Day and I was wondering what advise can be offered regarding arrival time, parking and what’s happening throughout the day?

I appreciate that flying depends on the weather and servicibilty but I would be grateful for any information regarding the event.

My reason for asking is that if possible, I would also like to take in East Kirkby if time allows!

Two Lancasters in one day 😀 I can’t wait…

TIA, Tony

Thanks for the info about East Kirkby, I normal visit during week days and just assumed that it was open at the weekends as well.

Oh well, only one Lancaster then! 🙁

I believe that entry and parking is via the visitors centre.. flying is currently scheduled for around 1420ish but looking at the weather anything could happen.. but theres a couple of nice white gazeboes where you can shelter from the wind and rain – if they’re still there by sunday!!

nope, east kirkby not open sundays.. actually neither is Lincolnshire!!! 😀
