Cosford....
Air Museum , RAF Cosford , between Wolverhampton and Telford http://www.rafmuseum.org.uk/cosford/index.cfm
Which date has been decided.
Sunday 13th April to coincide with this http://midlandsbreakfastclub.co.uk/
Where exactly to meet up.
At the museum , just follow the "event" arrows
What time to arrive.
Meet starts at 9.00 , could do with people there by 9.30/ 10.00 latest to get some sort of decent display on
Do I need to register my interest anywhere?
Nope , only with me , here .
Sounds very exciting :lol:
Should be good !

I'm also organising a bit of a run after , 1.5 / 2 hrs max. ending up at a pub for a spot of lunch .

Some people from further afield are travelling up Saturday ,stopping over here http://www.foliohotels.com/westmead/ ( £50/room) , and meeting up for a meal and a beer Saturday night , and a bit of a convoy over to Cosford Sunday a.m.

Would be good to see you

Hey Tom,
Re my breakfast...........
I can always catch up with you so long as you save me a space in the line up.
Or
If anyone else is staying at he Westmead overnight we could form our own mini convoy and catch up with the trail blazers after we have dined!

I'll have a look at shortening the cross-country route at the weekend to allow for a later departure,
or maybe go straight there on the way and come-back cross-country after lunch .
Whatever , no sweat !
