From memory gates open for early bird tickets at around 8am. The mainstream entry is either 9am or 10am. I know of one aerojumbler who will be having a stall there for tomorrow so I guess other stall holders will turn up just for the Monday to add to the 20 stalls already there.

Thanks for the information on the prop.

Anyone know what the propeller may be from ?

A Japanese Ki.49’Helen yoke with column top in relic condition with history sold on Ebay (US) about two weeks ago, price was about £700. Over the past 3-4 years I have noted a few Junkers 52 yokes for sale, one at Shoreham aerobillia £800. One on EBay US for a similar £800 price and one on EBay Germany for around £1100. However the spokes alone I doubt would fetch anywhere near such prices, perhaps a relic value of £30-£50? The Sunderland wheel well there was one on EBay UK last summer went for around £700 in much better condition (coating) than your example. The Ventura I estimate around the £200-£250 mark. All prices are obviously subjective depending on the market at any given time and no price is ever set in stone. Provenance always adds some value to any item so be sure to market this fact if and when selling items. Good luck !

Gosh the prices of sticks just goes up and up, £18,000 for this one ! Ebay item 201376404799. Makes me wonder what is the most expensive grip or yoke anyone has come across ????

Great stuff, ever considered an aerojumble at the site to kick it off? I remember Pete did a bit of this some 12 years back on some of the open days along with the Shackleton engine runs.

Another air show bites the dust and many more to come. Is someone going to start a thread on all the air shows cancelled this year so we can ‘tot’ them up. Only the big boys will be left!
