2. Administrators Jabo Posted July 9, 2009 Author 2. Administrators Posted July 9, 2009 i fail to see a 109 on that list im not happy Disappointing but hardly surprising, given that there's no currently airworthy example in the UK and only one in Europe. The Messerschmitt Foundation in Germany have two, but one got bent last year in a landing accident and they're not keen on sending their aircraft too far from home in any case. There is a Buchon though which is kind of similar. And an FW-190 in the static park too. Of more immediate concern is the fact that all the Fighter Collection aircraft except Miss Velma are also missing. No Hellcat, Bearcat, Wildcat, Corsair, Spitty, Gladiator??? On a more positive note, there's some nice footage of the Sea Fury on the FC Blog Jabo Quote

Oldtimer Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 Looks like I'll get there - but only for the Saturday. Plan A is to get to the Red Lion about 0900 for breakfast, and leave Saturday evening. Quote

DD_Arthur Posted July 10, 2009 Posted July 10, 2009 Have a great time guys. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the weather for you and I'm looking forward to some great pictures of old aeroplanes and Saturday night debauchery. Talking of debauchery, or the lack of, I've been appointed head bouncer for my mother-in-laws 60th. birthday party on Saturday night, aaargghhhh............... Quote
