Bruntingthorpe - May 6th Cold War Jets Open Day
Discussion
Really tempted to try and make this. I've not been before, but have seen the pics/vids and it does look like a good day. Bit of a trek from home, but an early start and perhaps, with a bit of planning, a nice interesting route home.
On second thoughts.... 190 miles and 3.5 hours each way! Further than I thought and probably a bit too far. Bugger!

You'll never get nearer to anything louder or more powerful though A Lightning on full afterburner only yards away makes your ears bleed lol

Well yes, I would like to witness that. I remember them on the airshow circuit as a kid and was mostly in awe. Wonderful aircraft. yorkieboy said:

Hmm, ...... I think it'll be down to the weather as much as anything, but not a bad idea. I will make it sometime, but not this one.
Thanks for the thought re car sharing though.

I'll be there, with Kitchski and his 2 kids. Gay Dads Day Out springs to mind!
Sans kids now. They weren't scared of loud noises last year, but this year they think a Picasso diesel is loud. Hopefully next year they'll think differently!S10 GTA said:
