You have a point Vultee,although I have afeeling that sponsorship will become a more sought after resource, or refurb surplus kit ” The Great Goshawks” . Another option is to reduce the numbers, the Blue Angels do a lot with less. Contract out?

Joking again..but strange things are happening ….

Luckily we are not lacking good aviation museums in the Uk and Hendon will slide down the list of enthusiasts being now worth one visit to tick off the rare items. I doubt that the RAFM Hendon will miss the return visits from us, they have a different target which is fuelled by the current trends. Sadly the money spent is a reflection of what it costs to engage pro companies on a tender basis .

Thanks and suitably epic music.

The key point here is that we all have been given the chance to live in a country which has choice. And many fought for that right. At times you might feel some things are advertised ,promoted to much but thats because there is a choice .

I used to get annoyed when people overtook my car when strictly they broke the speed limit, but thats their choice, so now I let it go and dont get bothered. Theres some things that annoy me but nowadays I just move on… which is what this thread should do!
