-making the most of the aircraft
I'm in full agreement John. After the mudbath in the car clubs area last year the Event director has moved the car clubs into last year's heli park (and there will be a bridge over the track). The helipark this year has moved back to where we had it in the first year (adjacent to the castle, the sponsors padock and the shedding where all the cars wait to race). Last year the Challenger II and other Heavy Metal turned this into a churned bog -not ideal when it is right in front of the castle. So the helis have regained their rightful place! This means we are on the inside of the track -so no 15 minute delays to get over the track between race classes. It also means spectators will be able to get much closer to the aircraft. Another thing -there will be a 'county loo' cabin with M&F facilities next to the ATC cabin! After the fourth pilot had asked for 'facilities' before departure last year I got the message.
