"PPruNe"ers at WOW2002?
 
So many from here making the expedition south to Warbirds Over Wanaka 2002 (Easter)??

If so why don't we organise a "gathering" at a local establishment??

Anyone keen?

I hear that they've have got a Grumman Wildcat attending along with the usual Spitfire, Hurricane, Polikarpov's, etc., etc. (first show WITHOUT RNZAF jets attending!!).

Aye, looking forward to it. After saying "I'm going" for the last 3 shows, I have finally got my arse into gear and got my tickets and leave sorted.

Still waiting for my photo's Kermie, Blueline.

No suspicious pinups appeared in your workplace then Blue? <img src="wink.gif" border="0">

Out of interest how are you two gettin down there?. .Also would there be room for one more if needed

DANZ 2nd Feb 2002 05:52

Maybe a NZPPRuNe "Minibash" could be arranged in NZCH the weekend of/before WOW2002?? I'm sure there are enough of us around to get something going!

Sorry Blue,

I'm taking the scenic route and about 10 days to get to Wanaka, beside's I don't think the wife will be impresed if you tagged along on our "honeymoon" <img src="eek.gif" border="0"> . Other than that, it wouldn't be a prob.

Oh yeah I forgot :) . .I don't think she'd mind to much. I mean I don't mind sleeping on the ground beside the bed <img src="tongue.gif" border="0"> .. .But 10 days is a tad on the slow side, so I guess its just you & the misses

Saw Zippy today, rolled on up in his 206 with his boss. He lost my card, so expecting photos through any day now. Blueline, I should know soon whether Im coming down, will try to divert your way if I do to pick you up. You bring the rum Ill bring the coke.

Sounds like a plan to me :) . .Whos gonna be the Hostie?? <img src="tongue.gif" border="0">

NDB Alpha 6th Feb 2002 05:51

Now I'm REALLY looking forward to the show...'cos judging by the response there will only be 5 people going!!

No queues, tons of elbow room, plenty of good viewing positions...

Wonder what else is going on that weekend 'cos most of the accomodation, etc is booked out!

Going to be great, almost like a "private warbirds show" for a select few!!

Bugout 6th Feb 2002 08:15

If it's anything like the last one, then add a few zeros to that 5.... .Had a blast at the last show, wish I could stretch to doing it again, got a bunch of digital pics from 2000 if anyone is interested...

Visual Approach 6th Feb 2002 14:22

Oh for there only to be 5 of us going!!!

Solved the accomodation problem...renting a campervan...now if I could just get it on top of that hill behind the airfield...what an excellent position to view from...not to mention the view from your "bedroom window" on the Sunday morning...Anyone know the Landowner's contact details??

If there are only 5 of us going then the 'van may be a great location for a micro-bash...at least I won't have to drive anywhere!@!!! Mind you, I could just park outside the pub....mmmmmmm Fanta!

Blue Line 7th Feb 2002 08:03

Sounds good, but I hope some one will be able to radar vector me home at the end of the night :)

kiwi_boy 7th Feb 2002 08:20

I too hope to be puting in an appearance!

I believe that the Cardrona Hill Climb Rally/Race to the sky, is on at the same time which could explain the accommodation woes.

NDB Alpha 9th Feb 2002 02:27

Oh yeh!

GO POSSUM !!! (another Kiwi that whips those Aussies ****5!!)
