i did put this idea up last year,
i'd recommend the Wings and Wheels model show (as in model cars Jets etc. before anyone has to adjust there pacemakers
) .
2 day event, one held at North Weald Aerodrome, a little way up the M11 near Harlow, so very easy to get to for most anyone. Every Saturday is a ruddy great big market, so any spouses want to have a shop while we play will b catered for
also one held in Surrey, where Brooklands will be involved
http://www.wingsandwheels.net/information.htmlnot been to that one but at North Weald the pedestrian and display area is part of the concrete runway, so absolutely ideal for C5's, to toddle about on, or simply to do a static display.
there are several model supplies, tool stands and machine shop types usually, so you might even get that mod made you were hankering after.
we would need to contact the organisers for permission, PL insurance and so on, but it is a fantastic day out, and the flying displays for us big boys of all ages are worth seeing in their own right.
unfortunately i can't be the organiser, as shown by the last 2 meets, i may had to drop out for work reasons at very short notice,
no dates posted as yet for North Weald, bu Surey is August Bank Holiday
so just an idea.
