Remind me to NOT refer to you as Mein Fuhre when we are getting a beer. We don't want any dramas.

Better leave my long leather coat at home then

Talk to you about it at Glasgow Martin and don't forget the Czech Rep is not in Euro land yet, so you need Czech money not Euro's

Here's some of my pictures I took at E-day

This is the TV Tower, 216 meters tall and makes a great landmark

Here at night

And this is the Wings Club with some of the food, the cannon had the dumblings in it

It was the Spitfire cockpit on the wall that threw me the first time I walked in. It was a fake unfortunatly, but the wheels and propeller weren't.
Food was good, along with the beer.

The show was very good, the standard was high and it was great to see families and kids there as well as the beer and sausages.

Kbely was great as well - more Migs and Sukhois than you can shake a stick at, and an F-5E in North Vietnamese markings next to an Aussi Sabre - along with nice and helpful staff, they have a well restored Il-2 which we were taking an interest in - the guy looking after the exhibit simply lifted the rope barrier and waved us in so we could have a real close look.

Chris got Steve and me into -534's in a big way.
We also have a good pic of Chris and me pointing at the "no photography" sign at the base entrance

! That was more about the operational base the other side of the fence, we saw some Mi-8/17s and a Hind come in. Oh and it's all free, and they sell beer! Superb!
