Saw a post on the Porsche forum, asking for Porsche attendees, and cheekily followed it up. Only cost a donation and was quite a hoot in the Motoring Paddock, with all the Horays.

I'm not sure he needs to have a cool car/bike, he is a jet fighter pilot after all...

I missed getting pics of all the static cars as it took so long to get in, i live 40 mins away, i left home at 9.30 and got there at 12.30 just in time to see the flying display start.

The event was poorly managed from a logistics point the trouble was you had to pay/give your ticket before you parked causeing the 5 mile odd traffic ques if they'd parked everyone first and took money afterwards then everyone would have got in quicker.

I got some photo's of the flying at least. http://s9.photobucket.com/albums/a60/johnrpics/Win...

LuckyP. I set off for Dunsfold to give you some moral support but had to give up when everything ground to a halt. Sorry I missed it but if the organisers want me there next year, they'd better do some organising.
