Yeah, I can see the sky being full of Patrouille de France Alpha Jets. Will make a change from Red Arrows Hawks.

Really good day - thanks Dick and the team. Even though there were so many pilots it all went like clockwork with plenty of ribbing to be had in the queue waiting to fly

The day before CJ I got one of the first Merlin VT80 turbines from Jets Munt so I decided to put it in my previously P80 powered Sprint. Flew it at CJ yesterday and it worked a treat. I have to say I am impressed - even more so as Boomerang are now flogging them !

I'd like to add my thanks to Dick and the team for a great day! Very enjoyable indeed, and good to see so many of the 'faces' from here and elsewhere on the net! The weather was fantastic too - keep rolling those bones Dick!

Well there are a few of them about Aliatair, I'm just dead jealous and full of envy

Just got myself an Elan kit to add to my fleet, was thinking P80se but that new VT80 sounds really good

Thanks to Dick and his team for putting on a great event. What a great day and it was fun catching up with everybody in the pub after.

Many thanks to Dick and the rest of the crew for sweating it out, to gives us all another great day of Kero burning (That includes all those Dyson powered things! Only joking).
Couldn’t get over the amount of people that turned up, would love to see John Wright’s new masterpiece fly. That jet pack on the back of it can really inspire some bad ideas (those are the ones that normally involve the hospital)! It’s hard to imagine that it’s only twelve weeks till Christmas, with this sort of weather!

Once again, many thanks.

It is great to see that some of you are having great weather to fly at a great meeting not like us over here in Ireland we had to cancel the last 3 jet-meetings due to the crap weather that we are having all year [&o]

cheers

Gents,

I have three vent-overload tanks and one heavier item that was left at AB on Friday.

I won't post the tanks so if you claim one and your decription's a good match (coz they're all diferent), I can either keep it 'till the LMA Gaydon event on 23rd Oct or the next CJ on 16 Dec, or you can come and get it.

If you forgot something 'heavier', maybe the other item's yours! Let me know.

Cheers,

Dick
England
