Cannot give a definate answer… I know for Jan & Feb it was put as L10 landing fee and L15 take off fee (membership cost) and people were happy to do that.
I think may be a waiver depending on what type the aircraft is but not 100% on that.
WW event is alongside BWPA anniversary event and I believe that WW were concerned with the parking space and numbers…
As for numbers we had 60+ booked for each of Jan & Feb
Sorry not much help really…

‘Tis indeed…
Plus a DH Dragon, DH Rapide and DH Leopard Moth amnongst others…
Hold thephones folks…
I think the lower Viscount is the TAY model and the one higher up is indeed a Viscount and not a Vanguard!!! Hangs head in shame…
I also think it is a Hermes – wings don’t look right for Britannia – Not seen many pictures of Hermes especially with wings!!
Hangs head further in shame…
Beautiful shots… Times were certainly different then…
Classic British Aviation in the static shot (not to mention the Freighter of course in the flying one)
I can id at least (clockwise from Brabazon)
Meteor, Apollo(?) Universal Freighter, Canberra, Supermarine thingy (type escapes me), Britannia, Vanguard, Varsity and Viscount…

Dutch one – bent, under rebuild.
Thought it was Belgian….
Cheers. I’d not seen the second more detailed set – makes the loss seem worse somehow as looked to be in quite good condition considering…

Have to say Abingdon.
It’s gone from a simple fly-in, just a couple of micro lights and a Chipmunk the first year, to a large-ish fly-in with military and civilian components (of various types) in an air display and an international visitor in just five of years. And all in the name of charity despite constant hikes in insurance costs and the like.
OAW
Thanks for the info. Such a waste. There are many items over the years that have slipped though “our” fingers…
I will admit not not being convinced of the type from the photo.
I will see if I can scan it tonight and see if I can get it to work from here… Can’t promise anything but will try.
OAW
All the best to you. Have a very Happy Birthday.
