Sadly with everything else I have to do these days I very rarely get time to just turn on the radio.
I have an aerial on the roof which makes a whole world of difference when you’re listening at home.
I started about 20 years ago with a Win 108. It is battered and bruised and won’t do half of what a modern receiver will do but it is still my preferred radio when at home.
I have a modern Icom which I take with me to airshows.

Three things to remember in turbulence.
1. Don’t rub your eyes
2. Don’t pick your nose
and if your bum itchs, well…….:diablo:

Fox and Tangmere have just about summed up what we have around here.
Only thing I can add is the small private strip by Washington VRP. Whoever owns that has some friends with some very interesting aircraft, some of which I don’t know.
Recently had a single engine low wing mono plane with tri tail and invasion markings flying around. No idea what it is. Had a very nice display by a Harvard this afternoon. Quite often have a small bi plane practising aerobatics in the area.
Add that to the bits and pieces we see that are obviously out of Shoreham and I think I’m very lucky to live where I do.:)
PS If anyone wants to offer a flight in any of the above I’ll try very hard to persuade the missus allow me to part with some cash!

Compared to the lack of facilities most of us have yes it is still cheap for what you have. I can’t recall what we used to pay at LGW.
However just to double prices without comment will upset people. Possibly more a communication problem. Giving people plenty of advance notice with reasons why would have been better although not without complaint I suspect.

Signed. If we can preserve the Mary Rose we can do with this ship if the will is there.
I’ve been following the story for a few years now. Criminal way to treat a piece of history.

Just realised something. If the Brawn cars are deemed illegal at the appeal then Lewis Hamilton will now be the winner!
How crazy is that?

Todays lesson is on the internal workings of an engine.

Brilliant news. Just been on the site and paid my money.:)
Personally I don’t think it takes money away from other projects. My view is that projects like this grab peoples attention and get them interested in historic aviation generally and in the long term more people visiting other museums and supporting other projects.
