I received this picture over the weekend...



However, I'm not sure if that means a floor plan is close, or just a nervous breakdown LOL

Rich - that image doesn't appear to be working for me, it just shows this.

Thanks for the heads up. Changed to a different host so hopefully its sorted now!

To answer the question about parking. There should be plenty of space as they open up overflows around the museum, and there will also be a shuttle bus running from the over-overflows on the approach road to the museum. 
A few quid will be needed for parking at the museum. Parking charges are explained here - https://www.rafmuseum.org.uk/cosford/plan-your-day/parking-charges.aspx

T-11 days to the start of my Cosford 2017 experience (the drive down from Cumbria the day before the show). Looking forward to seeing the JustFlight guys again, and chatting about flight simulation with a wide range of enthusiasts Smile

I'm ready to go but I may have to avoid just flight`s stands, it has a bad affect on my plastic in my wallet.

That's not allowed. We'll need to ban you from the show completely if you threaten that kind of behaviour.  WinkWink

A big thank you to the JustFlight guys for organising the show this year. It was very enjoyable, and I was first in the queue again as usual (I was standing outside the entrance door at 8:45 AM) Smile I have already spotted myself in three photos so far!

I'll echo that, I didn't get much of a chance to speak to many people this year as my daughter was being awkward, but is always something I will try to get to! Thanks JF!

How well any father knows that. Just when you want to look at something, they tug your sleeve, want the loo, or a nice cake and a drink.

Thanks for the kind words.  And you're getting earlier and earlier each year.  Be careful we'll have you helping with preps if you're not careful  :)

Careful, Chris will probably jump at the chance! And seriously, I only live 30mins away so if you do want any help next year just shout. Cheers K

A few people have suggested again that they would like to see the Cosford Flightsim Show become a two day event. Is there any possibility that this could happen? It appears that this year's show was the most successful yet, and I remember John Venema expressing his surprise at just how many people there were at the show.

It's something that we've debated every year and no doubt will again ahead of the show next year. No firm decision on that either way yet though.
