I was thinking of going down today, but after what i've seen from yesterday, imagine it would be a poor contrast,especially at The Tiger Club have gone now to.Decision's Decision's.

Hi Andy,woudn't let the lack of Tiger Club aircraft put you off going to Headcorn.It is sad that they are not there anymore,but there is always plenty of other action to keep you occupied.
"You never know what's going to turn up" is the phrase that best sums up Headcorn . . . you've only got to look at the posts from Headcorn over the last few weeks to see how true that is.So my advice . . . go!!!

Colin

You must have been up all night, Colin. Brilliant post, fantastic day. They don't get much better than that.

Some nice continental visitors. Of far more interest to me than noisy merlins :tumbleweed: . Where have the tiger club gone to, first I have heard?

Hi Colin,

Amazing afternoon you had. I gathered the BBMF had dropped in - rats! - I should have gone! Oh well...

Great set, as always.

Cheers,

Anthony.

Cracking set. Is there a name for the sinking feeling I get in the pit of my stomach when you see a set like this and you didn't go to Headcorn?

Once again Colin, another great set, and once again I'm kicking myself that I didn't get beyond Redhill :facepalm:

Nice to see the Islander back working again; the Caravan continues to be doing most of the work still. Nice photos of BBMF.

Great selection again as always from Headcorn. Something about number 7 (G-WHAM) that i think just makes it my favorite. Nice to get the BBMF
