CanadianScottish Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 It seems it's been taken over by a "professional" event management company, who appear to have alienated a lot of re-enactment and living history groups.

Ian McC Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Went today and it was really good. Plenty of vehicles and re-enactors and literally thousands of people. Also had two Hurricane displays (same plane but 2 separate displays) and flypasts from the BBMF Dakota and a Jet Provost out of Blackpool. Oh, and the sun shone all day as well! Hope it becomes a regular event after such a good start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willyslancs Posted August 22, 2010 Author Share Posted August 22, 2010 shame they did not get in touch with the people that wanted to enter..... pissed me around since february. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian McC Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 That's what I heard as well. Half expected to be the only one there or sent away for not having all my papers in order but it turned out really well. They need to learn some lessons before next time though - especially about not p***ing people off! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
