  • September Airshow News

    Quite a  bit to  tell  you today.

     

    As well as  the  aircraft  displaying at the  weekend which currently include the Bearcat (see her  below, caught on camera  by  Martyn C.  yesterday  when  Stu Goldspink  arrived back  from a familiarisation flight)

    We will have  both the  Friends of TFC stall and DCS in the hangar.  As  it isn’t   Flying Legends we have allowed DCS to  talk about  jets as well as  Mustangs!  This  is what they  had  to say about the  week end:

    “Hi, DCS will be at Duxford! For both days,  there will be 3 PC’s to come and try the latest DCS modules and have a sneak peek at the new DCS Hawk from VEAO.   Two of the Virtual Horsemen will be there along with staff from both VEAO and the Virtual Aerobatics server.

    Fancy trying a module you don’t already have? Want to ask the opinions of some other pilots? Or just come down to say ” Hi” on the day and enjoy seeing us while   located next to the amazing aircraft of the Fighter Collection at Duxford. ”

    The  Friends of TFC stand will have our  new  merchandise  and other  goodies on show.

    If you can’t make it to the  show you can see  and buy our  new poloshirts HERE

    Speaking of Friends of  TFC,  the latest  Fighter  Log is  due  back from the printer any time  now.  We  also  did  some of the  photoshoot  for our  calendar, FofTFC  members can access a video of the shoot by  clicking HERE and clicking through to FofTFC members pages, which also include  a link to FofTFC special members offer on the new poloshirts offer .
