Things that go fast...

It's the Farnborough public days this weekend, and as my little brother is over for his fix of Jet A-1 aromatics, we're taking cameras down there on Sunday (along with [livejournal.com profile] marypcb and a picnic).

Anyone interested in meeting up down there? [livejournal.com profile] spride and [livejournal.com profile] drpete, I know you made noises about it...

hmmm possibly.... [livejournal.com profile] beermat was expressing an interest in going this weekend and we hadn't decided which day yet.... Sunday would be better for me... I shall suggest to [livejournal.com profile] beermat and see what he says...

Can you bring me back a bucket of Jet A1 and a can of 2370 turbine oil for my skateboard please?

yep, I'm in. What time are you setting off?

11 from Putney station in order to make the flying which starts at 12.30...

Completely forgot, wasn't home to check LJ or email the night before, so went to retro computer fair in Croydon instead. Which was ACE.

Belay that, sorry. There's stuff I need to get done tomorrow, and I'm also shattered.

I shall be bringing the D70 and some longish lenses, too. I am now tooled-up with a gig of CF and three EL-EN3 batteries. Going equipped, I believe to be the phrase.

Tempting, but I'm doing my own bit of flying on Sunday.
Hopefully by now the USAF will have worked out how to find Farnborough and not do their display over the wrong airport like they did on Tuesday!

Afraid I'll be going on Saturday as I'm flying down to Guernsey on the sunday in the club PA28. Hopefully I will "do an american bomber pilot" and end up landing in Jersey :)

Well, wave to my aged P's - they're just north of the runway on Jersey!

actually count me out - have stuff to do tomorrow, and I'm knackered.
