The P-40 has been grounded by the CAA and will probably be out for the rest of the season. It is due to a discrepency in the paperwork.

The owner is Peter Hellier. It was the flagship of the Hunter Flying Club based at Exeter.

Sorry Kev35 but i actually wrote that reply before i found out about the crash. It is a shame that someone died and my sympathies go out to all concerned but threads are not going to stop and people will still make posts.

I will be there on sunday. I can’t wait, looks to be one of the best airshows for a long time. Hoping not to be disappointed.
Of course i won’t be, the Breitling Fighters are going. Oh and the Sea Vixen.

Eventually found it after driving round the same open space for 45 mins, then i noticed the blister hanger up by the trees. I went up to it there was a guy there working on a cessna. I asked if we could come in and have a look around but he said no due to health and saftey but was aloud to look in from outside. He also said he was expecting the owner around 5pm, i waited until 5.10 then had to leave.
Maurice has a nice little set up there and hopefully in the future i’ll get a closer look.
I think i read somewhere it is being opened to the public during the summer, can you confirm this or if Maurice will be doing some sort of open day?

Yak 11, i’m in the Hardwick area on tuesday. Do you know if Janie would be viewable should i find the airfield?

Looks to me to have a cross painted at the end of the runway, so i would guess it’s a closed and recently so RAF base?
My guess is RAF Wyton.
