That's a shame. I wonder how many there were, and how many will be wasted on the day.

Just noticed it myself so in case others have missed it, there is a briefing for the fly in on the link within the original post.

What an excellent day. Thanks, Filton and the Bristol Aero Club. :)

I wonder what the final tally was? It was an excellent turnout, the bacon baps and cake were superb and the Bolingbroke restoration was an unexpected pleasant surprise.

Whilst far from an original sentiment, what a shame that airfield will soon be no more.
