Wings And Wheels Coventry Sun 24Th July 2016

[richyb66]

This event was pointed out to me by Steve49er who was talking to some of the Shackleton team at Motofest. It's at Baginton, Coventry on Sunday 24th July. You can show your car off (they ask for a small donation), Adults £5, Children £3 and family ticket £15. I'm not sure if showing you car means you don't pay the fiver though?

I'd hope in a month and a half I will make it with the kit..once I sort a few niggles....Very interested and the Air museum at Baginton is also very good, especially being allowed in the cockpit of the Vulcan they have there

I think Stoneleigh should follow suit and ask for donations from drivers. Seen on the page someone asking what donation would be acceptable for cars, personally I'd pay the £5 admission fee, its only a fiver and will help for future events/maintenance of the aircraft.

Hi Everyone,

 

I have the following message from the WINGS and WHEELS Shackleton WR963 people when I contacted them on Facebook trying to find out about how we should enter the site and where to put our cars
