Yep.

These days the only race meeting I tend to go to in this country. Will be there Sat and Sun, Im working Friday, so Dad will be on his own during Practice. Will be taking the fiancee along during Sunday, she isnt into cars, but likes watching planes, so I expect she will spend most of her time in the Aero Club watching the fly boys. Dad and I did the full 3 day March and Kinrara (sp?) pass one yr, £170 I think. Apart from the start line grandstand, not worth the money in our humble. These days we stick to using the GRRC and Aero Club memberships and trying to snag a Woodcote grandstand seat for Sat and Sun (almost impossible unless you book em in Jan!).

What is it, so I can keep an eye out. It is my plan to fly in once I've got my PPL! (though I imagine you have to be one of a select group to get landing clearance)

As with every year... we'll be landing the Cerbera somewhere towards the grandstands at the far end of the circuit (memory has gone lol).

We will try the usual trick of holding our "E" parking pass so that it looks like an "F" - allowing us to, in theory - gain access to the historic carpark NEARLY worked last year... soo close!

Perhaps we should all wear some sort of PH identification in case we bump into eachother, like the carnation-in-buttonhole sort of thing! Any suggestions?

Half-a-dozen of us make an annual pilgrimage on Sunday.

We all raided Blythys wardrobe, for that perfect period effect!
