No, you’ve completely got the wrong end of the stick.

The Aeroboot is effectively part of the whole event, therefore once you are in the museum you have access to the museum, the Cockpitfest exhibits and the Aeroboot. If you are a Cockpitfest exhibiter then you’ve free access to the lot, and free access to the museum for the rest of year too it seems. Which is jolly decent.

Spot on MarkG – from memory they stopped being separate events about 4 years ago! Even then it was free access for cockpit owners.

A quick check with my colleagues at Newark has revealed the following benefits for cockpiteers / exhibitors for 2009:

Over the Cockpit-Fest weekend
– Free admission to the whole museum
– Free admission to the museum aircraft that are open
– Discount on food purchased in the café
– 10% discount on kits & books purchased in the Museum Shop
– Beef roast serving [Sat night]
Until December 31st 2009
– Free admission to the museum & museum site based events
– 10% discount on kits & books purchased in the Museum Shop

I’ve just spoken with Bill O’Sullivan and all the passes [I’m told they will be valid for free museum admission until the end of the year!] and paperwork will be waiting for cockpiteers / exhibitors when they arrive at the museum.

It was intended to send them out but there’s so much that it is felt best to hand them out on arrival, numbers etc will be based on the information that cockpiteers have sent in to Bill.

Pre-booked Aeroboot passes have been sent out! However people can still pay on the gate for this one!!;)

I hope that you get a trailer sorted Scott!
