...as for opening doors that must be another ken Anderson......running around impersonating moi.......

I think Ken is more accustomed to having doors slammed in his face! wink 2

As for the UK round at Ascot... Hmm, it's not that far from me to Ascot, so distinctly possible, though I have a bit of a concern that I might spend spend far more time sitting in traffic jams than actually seeing the racing. (No real evidence for thinking that, just a gut-feeling, though wasn't there an issue the very first time they ran a round in the UK?)

There certainly was a problem. I remember it well.

4 hours sat in stationary traffic without seeing or even hearing an aircraft - only to eventually be told to turn round and go home.

Plus, the promised refunds on tickets never arrived either.

Bonhomme missing out by 0.08 seconds- damn! Great race though and a great setting too.

I was fortunate enough to go and see it live in 2005 when it was at Longleat. It was brilliant! The forces they put through those aeroplanes is ridiculous, amazing flying skill. Thanks Josip for the updates and videos!

Anyone want to try it with models?
