    The banners from Todays Pilot / Flyer were left overs from the microlight trade show on the previous 2 days.

    Yes, the weather was poor yesterday but those who stayed to the end (our ‘tent’ packed up at 4pm ish) were rewarded by a few movements – including a Hiller, Luscombe, GA7, AA5, Vans RV6 – not many but at least some made an effort.

    to MarkG – what exactly did you expect? – there were some gems to be had but you needed to search for them. On a good day it is an event well worth attending – at the May event last year there were over 100 aircraft visitors and a lot more classic cars/bike/lorries. As far as our stand went it was a great success – took over double the money we took on Sunday in the nice weather – go figure ! 🙂

    Stringbag,

    yes there is a hovershow held at Lee on Solent every few years – we were involved with the last one in that we moved both PBY’s into the display area and allowed people to go onboard. This attracted a lot of visitors to the show although the weather was poor for much of the time. It is also the only time that the public can get access to the hovercraft as it is not usually open to the public

    Solentspotter, let me know when you are back from uni and I can arrange a visit

    They are both still there (well they were last weekend) – as a volunteer since 1998 it has been a lot of fun but very frustrating. It is very expensive to try and restore an aircraft from such a poor state and to operate it is beyond the owners reach at the moment. We do what we can to look after both but money is always going to be a problem. I can arrange visits if anybody is interested.

    I am struggling to think of a typical exec jet that does not have rear mounted engine regardless of whether they have 2 (Bae 125/Citation/Learjet/Gulfstream) 3 (Falcon 50 / 900) or 4 (Jetstar)
    possibly to make the cabin as quiet as possible so increasing the ‘luxury’ of being in one.
