-Did this event actually happen? I was going to go but the weather (intermittent rain and occasional strong winds) put me off. No point in going to a fly-in if there are no aeroplanes!
Regards

-I flew in with my Airtourer along with two others. Any pictures Duxman? It was fairly sporty coming down final with quite a lot of turbulence but the nice long runway at Turweston gives you time to sort things out. I agree it's always a friendly place to visit and the cafe does good grub at reasonable prices.

Some further pictures now added to my Flikr site ( as above) which includes the 3 Airtourers.

-Thanks Duxman. I think we had the biggest "fleet" there although there may have been more Tiger Moths at one stage.

-Is the quickest way to Turweston from the M1 off at J13 and skim Milton Keynes, or off at J15a and down past Silverstone ? (heading up from Hertfordshire direction).

I did park the Airtourers at least so you could get two in a shot each time. Must remember to try and leave space to park you all together some day!
Will you be going to Fenland Ozplane?

-Some nice shots there and I like the one with the two Airtourers facing the camera. I hope to be at Fenland but I'm not sure about the others. I guess we'll see on the day.
Cheers

Hope we will see a few people at the VAC fly-in this weekend. Weather is looking not too bad if the wind stays at a reasonable pace. We had the replica Mew Gull in this week so perhaps that might try its luck again Sunday.
If you've never been before come and have a look at one of the UK's friendliest airfields. Within easy distance of the M1 and M40.
