Dear all,
Shameless promotions time...
This is my annual May plug for the Cold War Jets Open Day at Bruntingthorpe, a week on Sunday (28th May). There'll be the normal large selection of classic British jets running, so if you're looking for something to do, give it a thought.
As for the VC10, it should be on first, so there should be public access all afternoon if you want to see and smell inside a live British airliner (sort of!).

The fares are a bit of a negative, quite apart from the aircraft, the aerojumble would be interesting.
I think I'll have to pass this up.
Pity I'll miss the static display of hot food.

Mike... if you set off now and can manage 57 mph average you will be there just as the gates open

Think I'll pop up as long as it's not pi$$ing down.

I love 'A Great Family Day Out'. What this really means is go on your own

True. That or "you're taking the kids whilst I stay at home".
Rick, DaveG - if you do come along, feel free to pop over to the VC10 when something less interesting is on.

I'd love to come too, but I will have to give this one a miss (again). I have plugged it on my site as well though. Have fun!

I see gates are open at 9:00. Any idea what times things are due to happen?
