After a slight scare regarding the future of the show when the Aviodrome closed down, we are back on track for this event. Who else is going to be there this year?

I just booked into the Apollo Hotel Lelystad City Centre.

I plan to arrive Friday evening, and will depart Monday Morning.    I'll see what air tickets will come to as it gets nearer but as it stands I plan to drive up from Stuttgart.

I'm also staying at the Apollo in Lelystad. I'll be travelling with another 737 builder from my neck of the woods.

We arrive on Friday afternoon and are leaving Sunday afternoon.

Looking forward to it.

Here is a video of me flying the full motion sim at simcenter here at the Aviodrome. The person after me cancelled, so I got a full hour for 90 Euro.

Was good to meet you this weekend Warren, good to put a face to the forum members!

Was a good weekend, highlight for me was the Revolution Simproducts shell liners! Could not believe how good they were! At first I thought they were real, I will post a pic later on

Good to catch up with P Cos as well, the jet max product is excellent value for money!

Also for the Airbus folk I was impressed by the Skalarki Product, not quite as good as FDS but a good option if you want to go modular.

Here is to next year!!

Same here Rhys!  You are correct about the liners, they do look  great.  Do look me up if you make it  to Stuttgart

A lot of nice things on show here, and a lot of new friends.  I Was disappointed that some companies were not represented though.  Maybe next year
