Good idea for the extra pair of eyes. We'd be delighted to see you and if this is your first visit, please read the AIC. If you have been before, please note that the HELI procedures have changed and if you follow those for previous years, you'll end up in the new exhibition area!!
Chilli Monster- Whilst I agree with most of your comments, we are ALL there to enjoy ourselves, so You overflying traffic which inadvertently calls - if you call you WILL NOT get short shrift- just be told politely to go elsewhere!! Though you should of course have been aware what's going on in the forst place!!!
Seriously though guys, read the AIC, follow the procedures and you should have no problems. AND of you are arriving in a moderately "fast" aircraft, try to give yourself plenty of room behind the one ahead. And those of you who try to cut in ahead of the fast guys , give ' em a bit of room. They are trying to get in as well as you.
And remember 400m of grass is not too long - any doubts , go for the hard runway.
Enjoy the Rally
