No worries T/O, thanks for coming to meet us! And our Houchin’s the opposite- it runs better than it looks!
We’ll probably be down en masse next month for the Aerojumble- When is it again?! ;):p
Sorry B2 I’ve had a hectic few days and I missed your question – the next Indoor Aeroboot is on 12th March 2011! 😀

Good to meet you last weekend ‘Blue’ sorry I could only spare a couple of hours, but at least you got a look inside XM594!
Nice set of pictures and just a comment about the Houchin – it looks a lot better than it runs!! 😉

It’s a grand place to spend a few hours, I really enjoyed it last year and got up nice and close to the Saab thanks to Twin Otter (who bought me a cuppa as well :D)
If anybody hasn’t been, it is well worth it, Mig’s, F-100, Vulcan, Saab…. fantastic.
