RAF Coltishall, Farewell to the Royal Air Force Event
Dear All
I have just been granted permission by the CO. at Coltishall
For a farewell to the RAF bash at RAF Coltishall Norfolk England.
All the Jaguar Aircraft will leave the Station for the last time on April the 1st.
No that is not a joke.
It will be the usual format. Warbirds/Any Jet or any scale model.
Electric models are also very welcome
The date is Sunday the 19th of March 2006.
If you are interested please contact me via email please.
I will need your name, home address, telephone number and car type and registration
number.
On the day you will need formal ID.
IE passport or driving licence.
Please note it is not open to the general public.
Thank you.
Regards Phil Goff, The Norwich Model Aero Club.

Dear Graham
I am glad to hear you will be attending the Colt bash.
Can't you get the 12th for the next BWs bash.
I hope I have not put this event in the way of your Bentwaters work.
I know how hard it is for you to get that event going.
In my opinion you do a cracking job laying on such a venue for people to
come and fly their models. I wonder if any one appreciates it.

Dear Jeff
As long as you meet the criteria any Warbird/Jet or any scale model.
It has to be like that as we only have twenty five places helpers are allowed.
I have people emailing me can I come up for the day to watch.
I had some chap last year who became very indignant, he thought he was going to walk on with no id etc and watch. He said he used to do that with the full size when he was a child.
So if you email me you and Gk's details I will put you on the list.
Thank you for supporting us.

Dear Graham
Happy birthday for the 12th.
Can you let me know what you will be bringing to Colt as I will be having some
posters put up around the Station.
Mh emailed me yesterday he wanted to know if there were any more events at Colt
We had just then been given the go a head. He said he had just about finished a
Lightning. I take it he means the Comp-arf one.
I had an email from Paul Bellingham today regarding how we run the Colt bash is it themed etc.
So that was handy I now have his email. He said there was a couple of places left
at his bash at Coningsby.
So hopefully we will be able to attend on the Sunday.
Regards Phil G.

Hi Phil
After talking with GK today I am afraid that we will not be able to attend this meeting.
We both hope that the weather is good for you and that you all have a great time.
I would not mind seeing some video footage of the event if you take any.
Apologies again
Jeff

Hi Phil,
Yes, the Airacomet is the Grumania one - it`s now resplendent in the all over orange scheme of "Reluctant Robot" the target drone from 1942.
Can you confirm you got our details on email - it didn`t copy to me - damn computers!

Dear All
RAF Coltishall is not going quietly.
The Eurofighter Typhoon was beating the field up this morning.
Very impressive.
We have got a lot of jets booked in for our farewell bash on the 19th of March.
We should have at least 3 Hawks all finished in Red Arrows livery.
Should be fun.
