Hope to arrive Friday evening in G-BTCH (aka The Bitch). departing late Saturday.

So if you see a fat old git near a white/yellow Luscombe that's me.

Will watch out for the Pushpak

Stik,

Will be turning up on the Saturday, but not in anything vintage, nor even Yak - having just her back from an engine change I reckon she's better off with the other syndicate members aerobating over Northants rather than sitting on the ground all Saturday at Kemble.

So it will be an Archer III parked at the back of the spamcan zone. I should have AB manning the right-hand seat, no doubt she facilitate recognition of you and / or your aeroplane!

I will keep an eye open for the Pushpak, I've never seen one before.

Ludwig - no more camp than your behaviour last time we met at Kemble!!

I'm up for Waterford - who is organizing our Balbo?

Think that an FR driving mate also wants to go.

oh Stik you promised not to make that public

The Waterford balbo will be organised on an ad hoc see you on the day basis by me ( trumpet fanfare) For saftey it will be limited to warranted safe formation pilots, (ie no dodgey flyers) who can maintain 140mph, and who don't mind the prospect of over water in zero forward viz at 50 feet above the waves. So far there are three of us, including you. Where do you intend staying in Waterford. We don't camp!

I'm planning to go on Sat. Maybe getting there about 11.00Zish. I'll be in the tatty L4 Cub, military markings, invasion strips and a big 44-F on the side.

Hopefully see you all there!

Did you say Aerbabe would be manning the RHS?

Remind me some time...

Won't be there - driving home from the place in Wales, and G-UTSY's got an hour left to go to the 50 hour check. Mutter...

You do have to register. You then get a briefing pack.
