Pleasure, I spoke to you today, i was the guy in the orange high viz (Staff Member) asking about the wind drift adjustment to your Routine.

Nice to meet you & also nice aircraft you have there.

After the recent problems at Sandtoft this is good to see, I hope the aerobatic comp attracts more business as we can't afford to loose airfields like Sandtoft

It all seemed back to normal but with a shiny new runway. Food and hospitality was great, very relaxed atmosphere.

the Judges were very impressed by the buffet that the Sky view cafe provided especially the home made cakes.

The BAeA all had a great time, many thanks to all the people there.

See the results here:

ZA, will you be at Breighton or Elvington?

Zulu Alpha · 3rd Apr 2011, 11:55

Not Breighton, but yes to Elvington..

...and you?

DX Wombat · 3rd Apr 2011, 12:03

Both, hopefully. I'm taking the caravan too, to save having to get up at some little known hour to arrive on time. Bryn will be there as usual along with his little half-sister Dilys who has yet to meet everyone.
