Because i'm friendly :p i plan to go to t'mound at some point in the day, but if they take off from Runway 25 we'll probably be up there. If not then i'll be down 07 end!

I hope it's 07 in use, I hate, and hardly ever go to, the 25 end.
Probably have to love you and leave you if it is ;) :D :))

There's normally no where to park and have you seen the size of the pot holes in the lay-by? you need 4 wheel drive just to park there =))
And the farmer is getting narked by people blocking the entrance to his field and parking on the his actual field :-o

So I prefer out little shady space by the mound, excellent visibility of the main ASP, BBMF hangar and the Whole runway, only bit you can't see is the southern taxi way and hangars round there.

I only have a very basic camera, but I don't think my pics are that bad, you get some good angles, and the sun is behind you for most of the afternoon.



Also,it's the easter holidays, from experience it will be packed if 25 is in use.

And I don't own a ladder =)) =))

I've been going at least once a week since mid 2005 :)) :))
Give or take the odd week off for illness =)) =))

Not really something to brag about I guess :))
But I suppose there are worse things I could be doing =)) =))

Fora is the correct term for more than one forum :D
