What Happens

The meeting and check in point has not been decided, but we will update here once it has been. 

Once you have been briefed, you will have free reign of the static aircraft parking area, to get the photos of everything without crowds. We hope to have a food trader open, this will be updated here when we have details.


We will scan your QR code on your ticket when you arrive and leave the airfield.



We also reserve the right to cancel the event due to inclement weather (However this is extremely unlikely). If a cancellation due to the weather is deemed necessary, you will receive an email the evening before.

Important

Where we have announced engine runs, please bring your own ear protection, we may have limited numbers of foam plugs we can give out but this can't be guaranteed.


Please bring your own torch/head torch to help you see in the dark areas especially on grass.


We recommend the use of tripod leg lights or illuminous bands, these help when moving position, so as not to knock over any equipment.
