Oh - if you got a 360 then we could watch it in VR and get a glimpse of what it was like :D

As you pointed out, Flying legends is a lot more convenient for foreigners like me. And I'm coming for the company, and if I get to see planes do their fancy stuff, then it's a good extra.

Azref, I really hope your health improves so we all can enjoy your company again.

Looks like the vote is favoring the Duxford Event. Any idea if we would gravitate around one of the two days? Asking because I'm looking into available flights and rooms.

I wonder if Bunny can sweet talk the girl at the hotel and get us an offer on the rooms again?

Traditionally we have a good curry on the Saturday night and do Flying Legends on the Sunday, there may also be a museum visit or pub crawl during the day on Saturday. :B:
Ask about ACG contraband, I can get what you need.

I always come about at Friday afternoon, get awfully pissed with the boys, then suffer a tremendous headache half the Saturday, get pissed again on Saturday and them suffer a tremendous headache half the Sunday.

Exactly what I was hoping for :lol:
Just that the headaches last longer when you get older. :suicide:
So fly in on early friday and back late sunday.

Getting the parking deal and wotnot... would be good!

I also propose Biggin Hill Museum on Saturday, stopping at the DeHavilland Museum on the way back?

Howdy. I'm not 100% for this year, but if someone fancies calling them, it was Katie Daniels I spoke to before :nice:
