I just had to laugh at the plea from monkeytribe! Free Farnborough tickets are like gold dust... unless you are in the "know". As a Heathrow Air Traffic Controller I could never get a ticket - I think the whole ATC unit used to get a handful to raffle. One year a controller from another European country visited us. He was over for the show and was astounded when we said we couldn't get tickets. He produced a sheaf of them from his pocket and dished them out! Similarly, a one time neighbour of ours worked in the UK for a US airline and this guy could get as many tickets as he wanted! Sadly, none came our way! That's life..
