We have been invited to participate in the Wings Over Illawarra airshow which is on Sunday 6th May 2012.
It is on at the Illawarra Regional Airport at Albion Park Rail. To enter your car you have to have a display ticket which is at no cost to the club but each person in the car will be charged a $5.00 admission fee. There is a parade lap for cars entered too.
We have to pre-book spots and receive display stickers which must be displayed on the day.
As usual let me know if you would like to attend so we can book some spots.
More information here http://woi.org.au/

I'd be interested in going along to this one. The kids would love to come and see some planes and helicopters I reckon.
Would anyone else be keen too? Would be good to get a group of cars from the club together. |

I have received confirmation from the organisers about attending. We did originally miss out but they have just gotten back to me that have made some room for us.
I will post up the details later on tonight, but if you would like to attend let me know and I shall email you all the info.

Yes, meeting point is at C5 on the map, so we should all make our way there for 8.30am, rather than meet anywhere else. |

Sorry I missed you, I don't think I was around the car for more than 5 minutes the whole day. There was just so much stuff to see.
A highlight was when the "Connie" started her engines and splutted to life. I happened to be standing behind taking some photos, got covered in soot, my club shirt is ruined, who's stupid idea was it to get white club shirts!!!
