The Aviator site has been cleared of the burnt bits leaving the foundations but no sign of the rebuild getting under way as yet.
The original Portacabin Cafe has been renovated and teas/coffees/snacks are available. Should this be closed when you visit, the ever-friendly staff in the tower will make you a hot drink. Sandown is still one of my favourite destinations and well worth a visit on a sunny day... if we ever get any!
