Notams, anybody?
I went to the Elvington Air Show today, and whilst queuing to get in on the A64 (2.5hrs to travel 6 miles) I missed the Red Arrows, who opened the show.
I would have been annoyed, especially having to pay £24 to get me and her in, but then I found out that the Arrows display lasted only a couple of minutes before they bugged out. Why? Apparantly some joker hadn't read todays Notams, and decided it was a nice day to take his plank for a spin around the Elvington area...
"Dont worry", said the happy commentator, "the Arrows will be back again tomorrow to open the show again". Very helpful for me. Not. I hope YOU boys all read your Notams religiously????
