News from Hangar Number 2
Well you spend a few weeks planning something for the website and then the weather doesn’t play ball. We promised something for today so please watch the video for an update on aeroplanes and news about our brand new Friends of TFC clothing – more on this later.
We are also glad to say our latest Fighter Log has escaped to the Post Office along with our 2013 calendar – so if you are bored with that existing calendar on your wall now is the ideal time to change!
A quick tour around the hangar at the end of February

Not too much to report on the flying front so far this year but a few notes about Flying Legends.
First and encouragingly TFC are discussing with the Manhattan Dolls a return visit in 2013.
Next and important if you are planning on flying into Duxford for Flying Legends we have a download of “Duxford Airfield (EGSU) – Information for Pilots” on the Flying Legends information page. Click HERE for the link to the FL general information page.
A quick update from the hangar floor with the volunteers invloved in erecting new racking for storing parts from the Sea Fury restoration seen taking a quick break.
Bookings for the Bremont VIP Flight Lounge have started coming in so now might be a good time to make your mind up if you are wanting to take advantage of this option.
And Finally: Where is my Fighter Log? Due to weather conditions the latest Fighter Log has not made a connection with the postal team, we hope to distribute these as soon as possible – Friends of TFC can still view this and previous editions on line as usual

We are pleased to announce that tickets are now on sale for Flying Legends 2013 – More information HERE
The Flying Legends menu on the website also includes more information on travelling to Flying Legends, Accommodation etc.
Another of those just in time for Christmas items. DCS have just released their P-51D Flight sim. Those who attended the TFC event earlier this year will have seen the stunning attention to detail that sets this warbird flight sim apart. More information available HERE
We will have details of how to order this direct in the next few days………
We are doing a bit of internal redecoration in the offices and thought the website ought to benefit from this as well.
Over the next few weeks we will be transitioning to a new look web presence. This will allow us to show off the archive of photo history from TFC as well as keep you up to date with the latest news in one logical place.
This will happen in stages so we don’t disrupt things too much.
Final news update: Fighter Log – where is it? Well the Logs are all printed and the first batch were in the post tonight. We ran out of polybags at a critical envelope stuffing time this week end – it all went very, very quiet and it was my fault (first time for everything they say), we aim to have the remainder posted out both UK and Worldwide by the end of the week.
Update November 14th 2012: Tickets for our world famous event will be on sale in the very near future – we will flash the news on Facebook and diary pages as soon as we can confirm availability.
