Thank you for the magazine plus W&W ticket. It arrived this morning.

Apologies for not attending the AGM.

quality magazine as always :ymapplause:

Unfortunately I won't be able to attend W&W this year, I managed to keep it a firm priority in my diary the last 3 years, but not this year :((

I'm trying to get some work colleagues there instead

Membership renewed this morning!

A question abut WWW

What's the question Pam - the link asks me to sign on, which I can't as I have no intention of registering....?

Same here

. What does it say?

by **Xplumberlives** » Wed May 23, 2012 1:04 pm

It simply asks if any flying displays have been confirmed.

by **Mayfly** » Wed May 23, 2012 1:11 pm

Oh sorry I didn't realise that you couldn't see it if you aren't a member.

Yes XP says it asks if there are any flying displays and states that the website doesn't look to have been updated lately - which I personally would take as there is no new WWW news.

Thanks Pam / Dave....

Wings & Wheels is not an airshow but we should have some interesting aircraft flying into, or over, Wellesbourne during the show.

We'll update our website page after our final planning meeting, but as always we will err on the side of 'under-promising and over-delivering'.

by **Mayfly** » Wed May 23, 2012 1:25 pm

Thanks would you like me to quote that?

The cover has been off for over a week actually - firstly to allow access to a BBC documentary team that were filming an interview with Avro Test Pilot Tony Blackman last week for a future 'Great British Aircraft' documentary, and secondly to allow us to carry out painting. That also explains the giraffe up against the fin. In fact I'm delighted to say that the repaint of the entire fin including all the detailed artwork was completed this afternoon by our resident painting specialist, Bryan Hull. It's the first full repaint of the fin for about ten years. We're back again doing more tomorrow......
