Thumbs up

I was there over the weekend and was impressed. Most planes I've seen in a single spot, able to get up close to the planes and hands-on with goodies like the 296, and lowrance. Managed to avoid handing over a wad of cash though. Food was OK, better than some shows. Marshalling looked safe and well organised on the whole.

Even tried my hand at drilling, dimpling and hammering a few rivets, inspired by the impressive part-built RV7 in the homebuilders area. Better watch out, or the weekend could really be an expensive one, even with the low dollar!

And as a member, all this for a tenner.

Only negatives would be that the Northside just doesnt work, I'd be pretty disappointed if I'd flown in and been parked there.

Also, must be possible to have a simple mechanism where you sign up for membership and get the member entry.
