Just one this year for me waddington π as i have no transport and limited funds π thought about going to rait but Β£48.00 is to expensive for me and its a long way to go for a day out
That is one of the reasons I gave up going to RAIT, the other is that it is just too big when their idea seems to be “Let’s see how many aircraft we can get in” as oppsed to Mildenhall which as far as I can gather is “let’s see how many different types we can get in”. Sorry to have misinformed everyone of the price for Blenheim palace, that is a special offer price through the local paper.

DX – legends 10 July
Blenheim Palace August 14 (price is more reasonable this time – only 15 quid if you order 2 or more adult tickets.)
Anyone fancy a meet? pm me if you do

Leg Ends, and probably one or two more Duxford shows. I think we went to the wrong late one last year.
Waddo – still thinking about. Haven’t bothered the last couple of years. Not a lot of point when I’m not interested in modern paraffin heaters, especially F.16s. I’ve seen enough of them to last me a lifetime.
Probably try Breighton again. Last time there was a howling crosswind and nothing flew.
Bruntingthorpe if they manage to arrange anything.
Oh, and Malta – 3 cats, wallet and long expired passport permitting.
