Which just goes to prove the old saying that engineers can't spell. 
I have met all kinds of interesting people here at the show so far, and more today I'm sure. For me, it is always so interesting to see and reconnect with so many of my former colleagues from the Bristow days - and I have run into a lot of them. 
Beautiful weather, although a little hot if you are on the sunny side, but a lot going on.
Stop by the Vector stand if you get a chance.

Well I enjoyed finally flying in and attending as a mere ppl(h), I've been meaning to fly in for the last 4 shows !
For all those looking for another reason to go flying real soon, don't forget the heli fly-in/bbq/fundraiser thing at Goodwwod Aerodrome this Sunday 2nd Oct !
(and no, I have no connection whatsoever, I just like to see gatherings of helicopters and like-minded folk)

Don't forget, you can't just turn up at Duxford which has strict noise abatement restrictions; you'll need to book a slot and get your unique reference. Details in the AIC.
There was no control zone so nothing to stop you going in.

and what's your point exactly?
you can't just turn up at Duxford
You ignored the AIC
and got away with it?
chopjock, I don't intend getting into a slanging match with you on here, mainly because I can't be bothered. However, your casual attitude to flying responsibly (as evidenced in most of your posts to date) reflects an almost total lack of respect for any material made available for the benefit of your safety and the safety of others. The AIC, which you haven't read, contains important information that ensures all visiting pilots understand the procedures in an area of intense aerial activity.
You're just a sad wind up merchant aren't you? You don't even fly helicopters at all, at least not real ones; just toys. No 'control zone' indeed...

Seemed like there was a pretty good turnout at the event. Lot of machinery on display and lot of visitors coming and going.
Nice to see some positiveness in the industry for a change.
