Heads Up for Cockpit-Fest 21 please allow extra time if arriving to set up on Fri & visiting on Sat - Stonedead Music Festival visitors are sharing access off Drove Lane on to Vulcan Way - please advise their marshals that you are visiting us & not the Festival.

Sorry for any inconvenience!

Hi Hunter49

I missed you this time around... glad you had a good day...hopefully will catch you next time for chat.

The foot flow was a little slow on Saturday we thought but the day was still as enjoyable as ever.

Mr NAM Updater

Just wondering if the museum as plans for another Aeroboot before the year is out?

October inside hangar 2 is normally the last of the year but with the current Covid Issues I fully understand that this may not be possible :unsure:

My appreciation to all the NAM Team for all the hard work and organisation put in to make Saturdays Event another great day. :thumb:

Stay safe.

Regards.

I though I'd add some feedback before trying to get the Cockpit-Fest results information uploaded on the museum website.

Discodaz - pleased that you had a good visit & enjoyed 'Civvy Street'!

Hunter49 - thank you for the feedback, please see comments below regarding future Aeroboots.

T1 - the date for the next Aeroboot is still to be decided & the jury is still out on whether or not we can host a a Covid-Secure Indoor Aeroboot sale (my personal instinct is not to do one, but we will decide as a group). As ever I will pass on your feedback to the volunteers and staff!

Not sure what the issue was with footfall - our paid visitor numbers on Saturday were the highest we've ever had for a single day at Cockpit-Fest / Aeroboot event; and this was combined with a great turnout of Cockpiteers and museum members. :S
