    Hi,

    £30 thats far less than a ticket to a some rock concerts/festivals, Womad is £50+ for the Saturday, I don’t know about V, or Tea in the park, and of course Glastonbury is far more (if you can even get a ticket).

    The Royal Opera is anything between about £25 and £150, I had to pay £35 each to take my girlfriend to the theatre on new years eve. Our local Cinema is £7 for a 2hour film, a reasonable meal in a restraunt is about £20 per head – I could go on, but on this perspective £30 for a full day seems pretty reasonable to me.

    Hi,

    Just some food for thought here; we notice coincidences, but we don’t notice non coincidences.

    Brilliantly sad! Did any one have the Airfix 1/72 RAF Groundcrew as child? as that included a model trolley acc.

    Concorde – surely the only aircraft that everyone recognises;

    I was in Nepal back in 1990, and was told a story about how when Concorde had visited Kathmandu the first time the week before, virtually the whole valley converged on the airport to see her (this might be appocryphal – can anyone confirm or disprove this?)

    I was working at Johnson-Mathey in Royston when they were filming, and they came over a couple of times a day! Four or Five fortresses in formation is an awesome sight.

    Wish I’d known they needed extras though.

    Hi,

    Love the idea of a national charity/fund, but how would the fund be prioritised?

    Would it be used to buy ‘at risk’ airframes, resorationprojects or would it be better spent upon hangers to ensure the survival of aircraft or split between the three.

    Runs out of room quickly to avoid being beaten up.
