Robbo Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 Fellow aviators, I thought I would start this topic as its getting close to Avalon. Feel free to let us know if you plan to go and also we will post aircraft that are planning to attend. Cheers, Skipper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wombat Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 I wanna go and get Gold Pass - First Class, but the problem is, I dont really wanna go by myself, and most of my friends are not really into aviation and dont want to spend that much money on a Gold Pass ticket!

Guest g_i_jack029 Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Hey Wombat, take anyone who has an appreciation for very loud, low pitched rumbling, massive power and speed. Introduce them to aviation. If you know anyone whose thought about flying....just the slightest....TAKE THEM!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbo Posted October 14, 2008 Author Share Posted October 14, 2008 Just organized our accommodation. $500 a night and we are there for 7 days !!!! Jeez it gets expensive when there is major events on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Steve R Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Getting pricey - $50 general admission and $220 per night for hotel plus hire of a motor, it's only once every 2 years though :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Darren Masters Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 I think Paul will be involved in this one too so I will pass as ground crew and stay at Paul's place. I am sure there is room for some tents out the back... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluebird121 Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Em Looks like there will be a queue of folk with tents..lol..but on the serious side, nearer the time we will have a look and see what there is .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Darren Masters Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 At least we can all make it an 'eyeball' or meet up. Who cares who is in a tent after a few drinks :biggrin::biggrin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Glenn Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Never know where you could end up after a few drinks. I'm getting some trade passes posted to me. Not sure how many there will be though, maybe 3 or 4. Guess I better buy a tent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
