After leaving Manchester in rain we soon ran out of the weather as we hit the M6, around a three and a half hours of driving in virtually cloud free skies later we were approaching Westonzoyland & cloud started to appear and rather more worryingly the wind was pretty brisk. As the day drew on there was a constant trickle of visitors inbound, with there being nearly constantly at least one visitor on frequency.
One of the major attractions to this event is the evening entertainment, so there's normally a good amount of people staying the night. When you took a walk around the clubhouse their comments seemed to generally agree with this idea with comments like 'We're expecting as many as we've had in already at around 4PM'. Sadly these extra never showed up, I strongly suspect influenced by the poor weather forecast for the Sunday. Still a respectable turn-out & a good atmosphere around the airfield, it was clear that lots of effort had gone in from the members to make the event something a little different from the normal fly-in, hats off to them!
