Roughly £2,800 per day req'd between
now and then.....

Very doable, especially if they have an
angel in the wings poised to take up the
slack (if any...) :)

Thanks, Minty!

I had hoped there would be a small increase in the daily total after 558 being on TV yesterday at the Falklands Memorial but every little helps.

why aren't all of her flights posted on the main vtts website before the event?? ~x( ~x(

if it wasnt by chance me reading our local newspaper and checking I/A site i wouldnt have even known she was flying last weekend.. now - after the event, theres messages of thanks on vtts for supporting her during falklands memorial display.

if people are good enough to donate money, surely they should be good enough to publish next appearances, its as though they want to keep it quiet or let us guess. :((

PR here is a list of the confirmed airshows.

http://www.vulcantothesky.org/appearances.html

TBH the flight was published in the weekly Newsletters and has has been public knowledge since the beginning of April. They seem to rely more of FB for publishing news than their own website and it has been mentioned a number of times. It does baffle me to some extent as the FB followers have not necessarily contributed to upkeep where as those who are club members certainly have simply by paying their membership fee. So if you don't subscribe to the Newsletters then I would suggest FB is your best bet.
