The advertised 'Bank Holiday Fly-in B-B-Q event suffered due to the constant strong southerly wind, although the cloud was high enough, broken at times and the visibility excellent.

On the Shropshire Aero Club website an attraction arriving on the Monday was to be a Vampire. On the day this was expected at 3.30pm. However at 4pm one of the spotters contacted a mate at Bournemouth and found the Vampire was still under wraps there! As I left SAC members spread the word that the Vampire was due at 6pm - did it arrive?

The Vampire did arrive. Extract from "echofoxtrot"'s note to me.
"just to let you know that the Vampire arrived at about 1820. I went home and returned. Did a fantastic flypast from two different directions."
Regards Beemer.
