Well, it's here. Elvington prepares to host a model show.
Thanks to Francis for being an integral part of the organisation of the event
More pictures and updates to follow.
I hope my next is always better

I think we all enjoyed the new show, but found the T2 hangar a bit cold at this time of year,
Congratulations go to Jon, Kevin and Adrian for entering the competition and winning prizes. Jon got best in show.

I did take some photos.

Thanks for taking the pictures and posting them Dave. An enjoyable experience if not rather chilly and a little lacking in illumination.
Well done to Jon and Adrian for the competition, I was well chuffed too.
The stand looked good and we still had some spare space we could have filled. I thought as a quickly brought about show it went remarkably well. A few teething issues and oversights, but in the main a good enjoyable show.
It was great to meet visitors who were interested in the models on display, and the footfall was higher than I expected
Thanks to all, for the good humour and banter throughout the day.
I hope my next is always better

Great results for Adrian and Kevin (nice prize, Kev!) and a really enjoyable show...helped by wearing an extra layer! The club display got plenty of interest, especially (it seemed to me) Keith's small-scale models. The Halifax tour was a great privilege and I was also fortunate to be able to achieve another ambition and try the Dragonfly cockpit for size!

A good day out. It went quicker than I expected. Some interest in the club.
Thanks for the photos Dave.

Missed another good show. The club stand looked great. Well done to all the winners.

I'm pleased to see that you had a good show yesterday... I'm still recovering from SMW, otherwise I might have brought a couple of models along!

If there is a show at YAM next year, I hope it's not so soon after SMW!

Would be great to have you along Chris. I thought of you yesterday when they were allowing some to sit in the Jaguar cockpit, an aircraft I know you have history with.

In a discussion with a member of YAM staff, I think September is being looked at for 2026, but we'll have to wait and see. If it is it'll certainly be warmer.
I hope my next is always better

A great day, even if it was cool at times, with a chance to talk to modellers both solo and club members. Hopefully off the back of it being rated a success they can attract more clubs and traders.
