    Not too soon in my view, I was thinking a simlar idea lasnight. I havent much money but Id be more than happy to spare a few quid for such a poigniant memorial. Combat pilots & soldiers have their well deserved memorials, so why not the same for our brave historical warbird pilots who give their lives to ensure the memory the of our Fallen Heros continues?

    Hi Lee,

    A sad day at Shoreham yesterday indeed.

    Hi Bex,

    Found the Denis a couple of times, but you weren’t with her on either occasion, so I couldn’t say hello. 🙁

    I might beat you to the sycamore playground in Crawley as my office is at Gatwick, so if I get a chance this week I may try and find the place in question, but I’m in Guernesy Tues, and in Notts on Weds, so you’ll probably beat me to it. Maybe see you there – we’ll be easy to spot the only nutters taking photos of the long grass!

    Cheers on this very sad weekend

    Hi Paul,

    I think you might have visited the engine when I was given my induction of the “SHoreham Pint” by the other members. On arrival the engine is parked and a bee line for the Spitfire Trailer is made and a pint is had by all. The only other occasion when I wasnt there was, in the lav. Typical, a big bright red fire engine, and I still miss fellow forumites LoL

    As for the Cherry Lane play park, unless you have a rug rat with you, you might have a problem, where the Sycamore once lay is now a pay as play area and is supervised by “Play area employees”. However, if u explain the reason for being there, ask to borrow a member of staff for a few minutes and dont take pics of any kids you should be alright.

    Efiste, soz for the delay, had a busy weekend 🙁 Right then, Im not sure if u can bomb anything in FS2004. I cant say for sure because I havent tried, so Im now just as curious. What I do know is you can create your own flight plans in FS2004, using the “Create a Flight” option. Im in the middle of reinstalling FS2004 on my PC (PC threw its toys) but by Tuesday if need be I can talk you thru it step by step. My fave flight is a 747 – 2xx from LGW to Atlanta, I get there with low fuel warnings and land with 5% fuel in the tanks LoL

    Joysticks make the game really, much more realistic and a darn sight easier. If I had the money Id be getting myself a set of controls from CH, they do proper flight yokes & rudder pedals. Or if youre a smart @ss you could always turn ya spare room into a proper cockpit 😀 Bex

    Sad Day

    I was stood on the back of our fire engine watching the the display at approx 1510 – 1515 ish, the Hurricane just vanished into the hill by the Lancing College, loads of people stood near the crash site and amazingly he missed them. I have no idea what went wrong, its not something Im going to forget in hurry. My sincere condolences to the pilots family 🙁 Bex

    As to your p.s., just wait until Willip26 gets back from holiday!

    p.s. did you take the photograph of the Cherry Lane Adventure Playground where the fuselage of the Sycamore used to be?

    LoL I must admit Willip has got a fine sense of humour 😀 As for Cherry Lane, my poxy sister has been in hospital and has just about managed to muck any plans Ive had recently so once she decides to stop bein daft and start being well again I can nip over there and grab a few shots.

    Changed the thread Title for clarity as requested.
    Peter,
    Moderator

    Dont wish to seem rude or upset anyone, but the idea behind this particular thread was just to let fellow forumites that if they wanted to say Hi Id be at Shoreham on Saturday, and how to find me and that I would NOT be there on Sunday. Bex

    P.S: As the title has been changed, if anyone wishes to use this thread to discuss Shoreham in anway shape or form, please feel free to natter away. 😀 Bex

    Saturday 15th

    As the thread title has been changed, I just wanted to clarify that I will only be at Shoreham on the 15th and look forward to meeting any fellow Forumites that will be there. As I have not got my uniform yet, I will be wearing a green flight suit & black baseball cap so I will be easy to spot not only due to being the youngest LoL
