Andy Butler Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Went to Rougham last Sunday. The weather was atrocious, rained all day and windy too so there was nothing flying. It was so bad that I spent all morning looking at the trade stands. This years show was bigger than I remember. I came home with three things - a Sky 40 kit from SLEC, a Cirrus Moth kit from DB Sport & Scale and a cold from getting soaked. Should have gone on Saturday instead. Did anybody else come home with some new toys? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon B Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 I went home with a sense of disappointment after getting advised there would be no flying and that i'd be paying £8 to walk round some stalls... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Read 2 Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 I came away with a cheap Lander panther . Luckily I went on the Saturday. The weather and the flying was first class. The Dawn Patrol boys put up a swarm of WW1 stuff - brilliant! Ali strutted his stuff with is 'hovering' jet - awesome! All the flyers put on a great show and there were many trade stands to wander around. Must admit though my heart went out to all those who stayed over for the Sunday - the flyers and the traders. A cold, very windy and wet airfield is not the best place to be. Lets hope next year we have two good days! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafman Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Unfortunately my brother and I went on the dreaded Sunday and we got there early so were one of the first in. The trade show was only partially open and most were debating about packing up and going home. However, I was not going to leave empty handed so purchased an E-Flite Blade Msr helicopter and a gallon of fuel. First time we decided to go to this show, can't help the weather so will give it another try next time but will make sure that I check the forecast for the day before driving all the way there for 30 mins, it did not represent good value for money.
