Maybe next time you can get some other Convairs and Metros plus other things lined up out side for viewing! May put the cost up a bit but worth while looking at!

Even if the price goes $10 admin I think you will be on a winner!
Just rope off the aircraft,make sure that us photo bugs have enough room to take shots of them (aircraft) and not like the Airshow which parks them on top of each other. Wont hurt to ask the operators due to the aircraft sitting around all weekend behind the fence's!!!
Ill be down in Nov With Terry from CAM's, so let us know a concrete date when you have one!!!!!!

P.S Make sure that jumping castle is there though

Must definately say the show was worth $5 entry(even though it cost me $10 for one of my mates). For a non-aviation enthusiast, he was even impressed, and commented that he didn't realise there was so many people who had the same interest. Was quite impressed with the displays, even thought i turned up at 4pm on Saturday. Sam, it was a pleasure to meet you in person.(finally!)

Well done Danny and team! I'll certainly be back in November!

Hi All,

I must be the only one here who thought this, but I was actually dissappointed with the event. Perhaps I was expecting something more. I met Sam Chui and had a chat which was great, even bought his book. The Helicopter Joy Flights where a good idea, and the Cat on show was nice also.

I guess I was expecting more "memorabilia" such as aviation artifacts for show / sale. It was good to see some models on display but I thought there would have had more for sale, such as BBI Elite Force, large Scale Models etc. Perhaps have " Hobby Co" or similar with a store with show specials. Just a thought. Perhaps I was expecting some sort of "SWAP MEET" of the aviation feel. Are there any locals in the Bankstown Community who would like to sell Aviation Items. Old Propellers, Aircraft Seats, Altimiters, etc.. Not sure of what others think, but I know I would be more interested in opening my wallet for items that are not easily available on a day to day basis..

Apologies for the somewhat negative criticism, but I am hoping this will help for future events, should I not be the only one who thinks so.

Cheers

Brett

Hi Danny, Please refrain from quoting the whole previous post in your post, thank you - mod


That will be taken on board although it is often hard to meet everyones needs but I can se what you are saying.
Hobbyco cant attend our event as its a conflict of interest for them being a wholesaler as well as a retailer.
We are working on always improving the show and for the November show we will have some new additions.

Regards
