Re: Biggin Hill Heritage Hangar Night Shoot
So sorry to have missed it after saying we were coming. Why do things that you HAVE to do always to conspire to get in the way of what you really want to do. The weather may not have been the best but would love to have been there to support the event.
Many apologies for our non-attendance

Re: Biggin Hill Heritage Hangar Night Shoot
A big thanks to the BHHH team, it was great seeing the blue flaming exhausts on the Spitfires,
and the smoking Harvard was also a treat, then a hot mug of tea and fish & chips to finish
the evening, you looked after us well.

Re: Biggin Hill Heritage Hangar Night Shoot
Another big thank you to all the team at BHHH for yesterday's event. Wonderful to see the aircraft running. Blue flames coming from the Spitfires and also from the Harvard were quite a sight. A great way to finish the evening with fish and chips and a cup of tea. Hope to see you again in the future.

Another big thanks to everyone on the Heritage Hangar team. I've now broken my nightshoot duck, and picked up some pointers for the next one. I promise to behave myself with the tea next time

£40 I would have thought that was a bit on the steep side of things myself.
Hope everyone had a nice night.

We still cannot quite get over the quality of the photographs from the night shoot. Well done to all! Had some requests for a night shoot over at the blast pens so will enquire with the aiport management about this!
On the subject of the cost, unfortunatley Fish and Chips plus AVGAS are not cheap these days! We do have other events at the hangar throughout the year that range in price, for example, if we do not run the aircraft then it is cheaper etc.
We like to keep the night shoots to UKAR and we tend to post our events on the Facebook page but we will endevour to post them here on UKAR as well.
Hope this helps,
Many thanks again,

Re: Biggin Hill Heritage Hangar Night Shoot
Having been to last years night shoot, I would say it is worth every penny!! Was really sad to have missed this years one, as was particularly looking forward to trying out my new lens but guess there is always a next time. Glad that it all went well though and everyone had a good time. Some stunning images appearing, well done guys.
Re: Biggin Hill Heritage Hangar Night Shoot
Sorry to have missed the event, and the fish 'n' chips. My car went "tech" on me (still hasn't been fixed), hope to attend the next event.

Re: Biggin Hill Heritage Hangar Night Shoot
Many thanks for a SUPERB event. Immaculate aeroplanes, friendly hosts, delicious food, good weather and plenty of room - what a combination. I thought £40 perfectly reasonable. Having been involved over the last 5 years with helping to choreograph night engine run events (involving airworthy aircraft) at a venue in the Midlands, I can appreciate the planning and costs involved!

Re: Biggin Hill Heritage Hangar Night Shoot
Hi BHHH,
Just wanted to add a belated thankyou for last weekend.
It was a great evening with a very welcome surprise fish and chip supper which was much appreciated.
As usual great access to the aircraft and a wealth of knowledge on hand to answer questions, and constantly reposition aircraft for demanding photographers!!!!
I've finally posted some of my efforts, hope you like them.
Thanks again,
Jeff.
