Anyone still wanting tickets should apply soon as there is only a limited number still available.

Are we ok to apply from Sheffield? We are really wanting to attend if we are allowed.

Yes Ben, If you read back though the thread you will see that I posted that UKAR members can apply just like the locals. But there is only a finite number of tickets available.
Cheers Phil

The ticket is a red paper wrist band and the Whitehouse Gate (the one used for Night Shoots) opens at 12 midday.

You've already decided to go so why do you need to know now what's going to be there? Be surprised :biggrin:

Besides, as with the night shoots, nothing is confirmed until the wheels touch down.

I know, but with the internet and all that it's very easy to 'see' into the future and find out these things! I used to go to shows in the 80's and turned up with no expectations and nothing other than the odd rumour and was often pleasantly surprised! :biggrin: I'm going anyway so what will be will be!
