Do I absolutely have to book a ticket for this? I often work Saturdays at very short (5 minutes) notice and the weather plays a huge factor in me venturing out on the bike. Could I not turn up and pay cash seeing as there should still be plenty of spaces available?

Yes of course you can just turn up and pay on the gate ;)

We will have have our 'man on the gate' Bob, taking money from anyone who wants to arrive at the last minute ;)

Hope to see you there, bring some good weather :)

Just for the record, its only gonna be one fast run with 728.

Timings:

Gates open at 14.00hrs

Come in the hanger, have a wander round, watch us preping 728, have little look at 904's No2 engine bay internals and the replacement engine thats now ready for fitting

As per the last 2 twlight runs all visitors will be briefed on the do's and dont's etc

728 will be towed out and down the bottom of the runway around 15.00 - 15.30hrs

Engines start and then the run around 15.45 hrs (ish) weather and light conditions depending

Back to the hanger for a flood lit photo shoot out on the pan with 728 only, as 904 is all jacked up and not movable (weather depending) 16.15 - 16.30 hrs

Mooch around, buy some 'stuff' from the stall and ask us as many questions as you want, untill you get bored of us, or we head off down the pub

And hopefully by the end of the day, we might just have enough in the pot to pay for the back doors and back cladding work

Well thats the plan any way

You are all welcome to wander off around the rest of the collection on site, if you fancy ;)

Great, hope you wont be disapointed ;)

Our 'new boy' John Ward, ex 60's and 70's lightning, 111, 56 and 11 sdq pilot along with our very own 1st lady, 728 should give us all a cracking evening :)

If you get chance, make sure you wander over and have a chat with John, he is a really good bloke, always willing to tell a good story ;)

Dont be shy to ask any of us any questions you might have.

See ya there, I hope ;)
