Re: Barton Nightshoot 14/10/17
Ticket booked today. I tried on Thursday but the site seemed to be down. I'm looking forward to my first nightshoot already.
Something I should have asked before booking but I didn't want to miss out, how many tickets are planned to be sold?.

Another participant to announce for this event, Hawarden-based G-JDOG will be attending!
We believe this is the first time this aircraft has attended a nightshoot, and we'd like to thank the owner for taking the time out of his busy schedule to bring the aircraft over for the evening.
There's still some places left, so book now! https://www.threshold.aero/event/evening-city-airport

Re: Barton Nightshoot 14/10/17
Another aircraft confirmed, and this one is a bit of a shock even for us!
Barton-based Yakovlev 52, G-LYFA, will also be present at the event. Will it run engines? Well, that'll be a nice surprise for those of you coming on the night!
