No probs m8, sorry I couldn't be the bearer of better news. Jim's right about the costs though, reading the price list I thought you only wanted to travel on the train, not buy it! Jabo

Red Lion is at Whittlesford m8, their website is here. You're going to have trouble finding somewhere this close to Legends though. I've tried the three nearest campsites (according to Yell.com) for you and they're all full. It might be worth calling the Red Lion and seeing if they'll let you kip in the car park in return for a small renumeration. Jabo P.S. I'll PM you my moby number OT, give me a call and I'll try to help you out.

Ooops.

OK Lothar, the most feasible option is to go from Edinburgh Haymarket (main station in Edinburgh). It's a 5 or 5.5 hour journey to Whittlesford Parkway (the nearest station to Duxford and right outside the Red Lion

Although I know the CH kit is very good, I have the Saitek X52 Pro (have had it for about 3 months now) and generally get on very well with it. The Saitek SST comes in for a lot of...ahem...stick, but I found it to be serviceable for my requirements. I'm still crap at the whole flying lark, but there's not much I can do about the pilot! There's a thread running at present about where the best place to get TIR from, and I mentioned there that RC Simulations in Bristol are very competitive - that's in your neck of the woods yes? Jabo

Cool. Can't get that Paul Simon track out of my head now though... Jabo

GK, No, no problems at all. My desk sits in the corner of a room with a north-facing window on the left hand side, so my monitor (and TIR cam) faces into the room. During the day the this part of the house is reasonably bright, although without direct sunlight, and TIR works without issue. At night the room light is behind me (although I use one of those energy saving bulbs, so it's not all that bright) and again TIR works as normal. I don't know how it would perform in a room with direct sunlight, but it seems to work OK here. I use a TrackClip Pro for preference, but I've tried it with the hat clip, and it works OK, but I have to dial up the sensitivity which I guess might cause problems in a brightly lit room. Jabo

Met Report for 9th-12th July (courtesy of the BBC) "High pressure will begin to build from the south-west, which will bring a slightly cooler Atlantic flow across the UK. Temperatures will remain above the seasonal average but it will not be as hot as this week. North-east areas of Scotland will probably see the highest amounts of rain while remaining areas of the UK will experience a scattering of showers, which will bring no more than normal amounts of rain for the time of year. Away from the showers there should be a good deal of sunshine, which is likely to be more than the seasonal average." "no more than normal amounts of rain for the time of year." We're doomed
