I can have a word with someone from the FAST Museum to see if they'd bring their stall along if you want ? Steve

JEFF!!Go for it..... We have permission from high places to drop a Herky Bird in for the day. No luck with the RAF as yet....The US Navy sent a Beech 350, or whatever the military name might be, from Mildenhall.
GUYS.. hold up on Twitter/Facebook. Thank you for the offers, will get back on these soonest. Our Air Day logo will be out soon and I want product identification where possible.
LYNOTHEHAMMER.. Do you have a direct contact at FAST? I was planning in popping in myself..today!!
Thank you all, it's great having your backing!!

Good morning Peter
Geoff Noble,a buyer and seller of aeroplane models etc would be interested in a stall on the Air Day. He can be contacted on 01344 426162 or
geoffnoble6@hotmail.co.uk
I have contacted a chap i know who is the UK agent for Aquila light aircraft from Germany. He is/was the F16 Display pilot for RNoAF , he flys
the Spitfire and UK painted P51, and he is Project Director for F35 for the Norwegian Air Force !! He is certainly not bored !!
My friend flys King Airs for Synergy at Fairoaks and he will talk to his bosses to see if they can help as well.
Regards
Neil

Neil....Wow!
We'll get in touch with Geoff and very much appreciate your message!!
As with other events, I'd be very happy to have some demo aircraft from manufacturers or agents on the field. The fly-in will certainly provide some prospective buyers/interest.
I'm still thinking about the RNethAF F-16 I had to turn down a few years back...but would be very happy to welcome a few more Spitfires/Mustangs this year - you name it!
Please keep me posted as to feed back from Synergy/Aquila.
Speak soon PB

Could a LAAS or Air Britain stand be possible? If you like I can drop them an email or phone call. Regards Dylan

Just what the doctor ordered. They are on the "to do" list, we do have a 'standard' letter going out to prospective exhibitors. Do you have a particular contact?

Nice one. No particular contact, just the contacts on the bottom of the webpage - I'd imagine charmain@air-britain.co.uk would be your best bet. Dylan
