I visited Derby/Egginton last Wednesday(26th Jan) as part of an airfield touring holiday with another member of Oxfordshire Aviation Group(http://www.communigate.co.uk/oxford/oag).After being given escorted access to the flightline and hangars we were taken into the workshop containing Black Magic.The chap working on her at this point reckoned about 5 years….CAN’T WAIT!!!!!!!
DaveR…while at Derby we picked up one of your leaflets to promote the project within our group…the web-site address quoted on the leaflet was http://www.cometracer.com.Is this still current or has it changed…I have put this onto the links pages of the Oxfordshire Aviation Group web-site(see above)
Finally,many thanks to Tara of the Derby Aeroclub for escorting and looking after us on our visit..:-)

visited Blackpool on Tuesday 25th Jan as part of Oxfordshire Aviation Group(http://www.communigate.co.uk/oxford/oag) tour of airfields in NW England.The Vulcan was parked by some light aircraft hangars in the SW corner of the airfield(was this her usual location???).She was intact but otherwise in quite a sorry state…sad to say but gut-feeling makes me think there’s only one way out for her and a cockpit section will be the best we get

enjoy ourselves on an airfield……ALWAYS!!!!!!!!!

very good point mate…as Andy says last week was my first forum-meet and very enjoyable it was too….therefore I would heartily recommend joining this “clique” to anyone…obviously not everyone can make every event but they are worthwhile….GO FOR IT!!!!!!

Paul,
agreed ..potentially excellent venue for this type of event…all-grass,some interesting residents and an airfield that absolutely oozes history…
shame I missed other movements,didn’t get there myself till after lunch,then spent quite some time in hangar….sorry also to have missed you,I understand you were in the control tower somewhere…how’d it go????
Although I’d met a few forumites before(MOTF,Robbo,Met24 etc),this was my first proper forum-meet and I have to say what a blooming splendiforous day it was,and what charming company you all were….cheers guys,& gal
roll on the next one

WELL….the first fly-in was held yesterday at Bicester.
Despite nearly 70 aircraft announcing their intention to visit the low,450ft,cloud-base prevented any visiting movements.Only based Gemini and motor-glider flew all-day….better luck in February
