    Anywhere else in the local vicinity worth a quick look?

    unfortunately Metheringham visitors centre doesnt open till Easter weekend, otherwise you could’ve made a dash over there.. I should think though by the time you’ve watched the taxi-run, wandered round EK and maybe Woodhall it’ll be almost time for the BBMF lot to entertain you.. 😀

    Would it be worth popping over to Woodhall Spa between EK closing and opening time at Conningsby? It doesn’t sound like there is much of the airfield left, but what about buildings/memorials etc? Anyone have any more info or photos.

    Cheers

    DS

    A cup of tea at the Petwood Hotel could be a good idea? nothing much of the airfield to see, some of the accomadation site is preserved at Thorpe Camp but doent open till after easter, and theres the 617 Sqn Memorial in Woodhall too.. Neil

    Hmmmm Moto Guzzi…always fancied the Californian, ended up with a Harley Wide-Glide, loved it to bits but had to sell three weeks ago…still in mourning

    thats a shame.. sold my last bike about a year ago and decided had to get another one this year before I spent the money on a digital SLR 😮 the camera can wait… 😀

    The past few times that I’ve been to East Kirkby the pilot has been either Rick Groombridge or Jacko Jackson. Does Mike Chatterton still do taxi runs?

    Rob

    yes, well he was last season… although something at the back of my mind thinks he’s changing the day job so maybe not now.. dunno could be talking complete rollocks.. 😀
