Hi Folks

Anyone else going to the Rougham Airfield Show (Bury St. Edmunds Suffolk) this weekend (13 & 14 Aug) ?

There should be a large number of classics there, so I shall go in the G15 (hopefully)

Cheers all

Is this a pre-book or just turn up on the day.
Off to Faversham on Sunday but fancy a run on Saturday.

Looks like the classic car display ar Rougham is fully booked :

In past years the air display has been fairly good so possibly worth going anyway. I believe there should also be a good selection of classic vehicles to look at.

I'm not going to Rougham - going to the Triumph Stag National meet at Norfolk Showground on the outskirts of Norwich.

Hi Roger

Apparantly it's full and was pre-book prior to 1st Aug.

Enjoy Sunday

Will no doubt see you sometime

Hope you've sorted your water leak - I have one as well to sort - it's an age thing you know!!!!

I visited the show in 2009 I think it was.
The B17 made a surprise visit as it had been grounded with engine problems.
It was up for engine tests and made an impromptu visit, was escorted in with the Spitfire and Mustang to the appreciation of the crowd.

I think I took more photos of the aircraft, I had come to see the car show Laughing

Must try and remember next years when sorting my timetable



And a few from the event, and others
