Hi! To those who managed to fit in the Wickenby Wings and Wheels event over the weekend. Below is a list of those I’m aware .
Namely :- Ivor Phillips (who put a bathroom project on hold to attend and made it from Lydd in 1 hour 10 minutes Saturday and who must have almost “hovered in” on Saturday Morning on Runway 21.)
Richard and Ben Iddon (Sunday)
Alistair Milne ( “ )
Brian Hutchinson ( “ )
Plus another mono “driver” who I didn’t get to meet .(Sunday )
I’m sorry I was so tied up with show duties as not to spend time or even meet up in the case of the Mono chap, but I was very involved in the collecting of entrance fees from the public on the main gate.
The Sunday attendance was brilliant and we almost ran out of car parking space. Saturday may have broken even and the Saturday evening Dinner Dance was a sell out including it’s own air display and will have been profitable in the interests of the Lincs Air Ambulance.
It is however bemusing why we can’t get a larger Europa gathering when compared with Southern events?
I do hope those who attended enjoyed the top class flying displays will signify their agreement that the Show was value for money.....so that our Southern “Brothers” will make us some better support in future years and demonstrate that our being North of Watford is not quite so bad or difficult as perhaps they perceive.
I have been very involved in the planning and know just how much costs are invested to provide such a varied show of aircraft in use.
So IMHO it seems a waste not to get maximum attendance especially from our Europa Club. Members . I make a lot of commitment to the project expecting a Europa blitz which never happens , we notify the date very early so that diaries commitment can be entered up so perhaps next year it will bear fruit?
Regards
Bob Harrison G-PTAG
