I'm hoping to go to Compton Abbas at the weekend and I'm trying to find out some more information about the air races. I've looked on the Royal Aero Club website but, as far as I can see, it doesn't say what time the races start or what the programme is for each day. I've e-mailed them but they haven't replied. Does anybody have any information please?
Many thanks.
I recently had this message from John Kelsall, who's racing this weekend in his newly self-built RV-8. I'm sure he won't mind me copying it here:
If you need any more of a flying fix this weekend we are air racing at Compton Abbas on Saturday and Sunday. There should be at least four RVs racing which should be quite entertaining The practice period is 11:45 to 13:45 Sat and teh Race is 15:30 to 16:30 sat and on Sunday the Race is 12:00 to 13:00 during these periods the airfield will probably be closed . (all times local)
Come and have a look you might like it.
May see you there, Neil, if I can get away - look out for my RV-4 G-MARX
