A great weekend it was, thanks to both Kurt and Nigel for putting the time in to get this organised, and a very special thankyou to Anne for putting this together, don't think it would have happened without her!!!

I was one of the lucky eight that got to go up to the control tower after the airside tour on Saturday so I have included some of the photos taken from the balcony up there. I have included a selection of the best photos I took on the day, others can be viewed on my Flickr Photostream

Hope something like this can become a regular event!

Thanks for posting your images Zac, the Tower balcony looks like a great location.

It was cool meeting a lot of the guys from the forum. It's great to put faces behind the passion.

Thanks to Kurt and Anne for organising the event and for all the guys in the background who made it come alive. One group who I would like to also thank is the spotters, who without their dedication to aviation, we wouldn't have had the event.

I'm sure I'll say hi next time I'm hanging out at the mound or the beach on my lunch break.

Has anyone got a photo of a Rex Saab, rego PRX, that was waiting on Bravo at the B8 holding point on Friday afternoon? I know not many people turn around for a little old Saab these days, but Im sure a few people did.
Many thanks.
