I'm taking the family on Sunday.

I know Zac is going sat to. He will be wearing his blue cap with a yellow Hughes 500 on and khaki NZ Warbirds/Mosquito shirt.
Hope he doesn't mind me posting that smile.gif


Enjoy all

I nearly left it too late to get tickets. Went in this morning and all sold out. Rung me back 15 mins later saying they allocated a few extra tickets, phew that was close. Held off watching the weather.

Decided to go on Sunday by train from Upper Hutt. Taking my 18yr old son, another budding simmer!

Might see some of you there, I'll be wearing a P51D cap courtesy of Graham Bethall winkyy.gif

Ticket restriction ! guess that is to save the same sort of debacle they had at the Ohakea show couple years back ... we needed you on the field in search for our Lancaster's Paul biggrin.gif

I think they do restricted presales, but they always have gate sales. They have so much room there that it'd be silly to actually limit the numbers at all...

I'll be there both days thanks to a freebie from the boss to say thanks for all the hard work... really looking forward to seeing and hearing the mossie in person biggrin.gif
