I had an enjoyable day there today, weather was good, sunny and warm and held out till about 2pm. I thought I would give the deminishing aerojumble some support this year and held a store there. Buisness was pretty much slow but there were certainly many people around. It was good to sit out in the sunshine, meet and network with people, something that that ebay is unable to provide!
There didn’t seem that many aircraft bits and pieces about but I was pleased with a few acquisitions, a Vickers Viscount Throttle box and 3 foot piece of JU-88 wing flap (still in original green and blue paint).
To survive I think the aerojumble definately needs to be amalgamated with the autojumble stuff, in fact its very surpising how much aviation stuff the autojumble guys bring in with them (The Viscount throttle box being one!).
On the whole a very enjoyable day at a great location (much better than Shoreham). Down side was there wasn’t not a great deal of aerojumble stuff about, still not enough to put me off though, I’ll be back next year.
