    My personal pet hate is the Bulldog trainer. Bores me to tears

    Bulldog as in Scottish Aviation variety? There may be a few private owners who disagree with you! Did you have a bad time in them somewhere? Okay so with that engine, they are something of a rumbley bus inside, but handle rather well and you can do aeros.

    Janie promised here to publicly and mercilessly tickle anyone caught spelling either the manufacturer or the engine incorrectly. Be warned :p

    You always spend some of that cash on punctuation lessons. I do good rates 😀

    Good luck in your quest for a cockpit 🙂

    Hi David,

    Janie is going in her Chippy and I’d like to come along but by road.

    There’s scant information on the new website (heh a Martin Shaw connection!) about the next Open Day, e.g. how much, where to go etc for road visitors. Can you help?

    Yes along with Leicester (East as was) Airfield. Even the depot adjacent to Long Marston has been cited. How much is wild speculation though?

    I think I have said before elsewhere on these forums. The Government doesn’t have the foresight, courage or strength to enact mass development plans such as these. Especially beyond their expected tenure in power. Getting the odd part ownership block of housing built on redundant plots of land seems to be all they do at the moment. Plus I think you have to look at the land the MoD sits on then ask why they hold it all close to their chest. Even the airfields that have been disused for say 40 years.

    At the moment it seems limited to developers putting in speculative work related to this new Bill, which hasn’t even been enacted yet.

    Likely! I saw G-AMRA was active yesterday too.

    Probably better asked on the Historic forum

    Although I like the new format, I thought the warbird list was entirely pointless. Sorry guys, but it misses a number of aircraft, and includes museum aircraft that will never fly, but misses others. An odd idea!

    Haven’t seen FP yet – is this like trying to copy the fleet directories that are often published in Flight?

    Thank you Ian, I was wondering if no one would bother doing an April Fool this year 😀
