I am still taking names for this.
I spoke to Duxford and there is a possible doubt over it still going ahead due to a small air show commitment the US Air Force have in Libya.

I have been told that Duxford will know for sure by the end of May at which time I will hopefully get the tickets sent through.

I hope this will still go ahead, and i thought it better to wait 3 weeks rather than having to try and refund everyone's tickets.

Please remember this event is on a FRIDAY and we do have to pay for the tickets but they are discounted.

I like the sound of the August thing as well, missed the May 1st do.

But if it falls thru, as you mentioned it might do :( we'll prob go to their 'Summer Car Show' on the 7th Aug
