I am just glad Phil is still going after his recent health scare earlier this year.
Any plane is a great plane. I am sure that Phil will, if posible, get a gem or two. Even if he doesn't get a "guest" the chance to shoot some night shots is a great draw for me, and many others.
Phil has run a few events this year, possibly more than at Duxford or Old Warden! So there have been plenty of chances for UKAR members to get to Northolt for one event. Also remember Phil has had some good fortune with attendee's, the Turkish Citation and Brazilian Embraer being 2 such examples. To have photographed them you have too take a risk that a "guest/star" item might turn up, or not.
If you can make it then it is well worth it. I just hope that Phil's luck still holds good with the weather, I don't mind cold I don't like wet!
