Hunter Valley Airshow - April 6 - 7, 2019, New South Wales, Australia

Hi all,

Torian and I will be once again taking the Cliffs exhibition roadtrain to the Hunter Valley Airshow at Cessnock NSW in April.

https://www.huntervalleyairshow.com.au/visitor-info/

Location wise it is 2 hours closer to home that the Scone airshow we went to earlier this year - an 8hr round trip for me.

Given it's location much closer to Newcastle and Sydney, we hope to see Cybermat on tour again and hopefully other members of our great community.

Once I know where we will be situated I shall post here. Hopefully we will be able to meet up.

Also hoping to add a bit of extra wow factor as well next year by bring my work HTC Vive VR kit for some Bodenplatte action as well.

In my opinion flying about in VR is very cool, but graphically outside the cockpit nowhere near the clarity of a HD+ monitor. And if you get motion sick, as we say over here, - ya stuffed mate!

Hopefully we will be in a well populated area and are able to introduce potential new customer and players to TFS and Cliffs.

Cheers,

Pattle :salute:

I'm due to be in Williamtown April/May time (with work). If it fits in I'll pop along and say hello.

That would be brilliant Bonkin. We need a bit of glamour mate. Have you seen our melons? :-)

The organiser got in touch with me today. Will know in Feb where we will be situated with the complex.

If you are not able to make the event, would be great to catch up anyways.

Having spent some time in your amazing country i can say that I am not surprised when I see the first info mentioned under the

"All you need to know:" section is "Alcohol - No alcoholic beverages can be brought onto the event site".

Just sayin.....

:)

Thanks again for the effort Peter/Pattle is putting into this, much appreciated. :thumbsup:

We would encourage anyone who wants to enjoy some vintage aircraft and perhaps meet up with some of the community to attend. :salute:
