Certainly hoping to get to more Auster fly-ins this year Adrian, i’ll be at Waddington but aside from that nothing’s set in stone as of yet.

Planemike, I don’t have one but there should be one in a couple of days or so

Yes, certainly had some interesting tales too – my favourite was from Ted Maslen-Jones, who served with 656 Squadron in Burma in WW2, telling me and a few others of one fellow pilot who started his Auster whilst under fire (swinging the prop, no starter buttons) from the Japanese, dived into the seat and took off with his legs hanging out the aeroplane!

Good to meet you too Tim, hopefully see you at Coventry next weekend

Just got back from a very pleasant flight wedged into the back of an Auster Aiglet with a lot of baggage. What a superb weekend – over this weekend i’ve flown the UK’s population of Auster III’s (all 3 of ’em!), met some fantastic people including several forum members and severely lightening my wallet (good job i’m doing some filmwork later this week). Can’t think of a better way to spend my 21st Birthday weekend

See you there mate, i’ll be there just before midday tomorrow fingers crossed

All my mistake actually – the website doesn’t say it’s in France, I just thought it was from the name of the location!
