Watts Bridge Open Day, August 27th
Hi guys
Sorry, this isn't deliberate (honest!) but there is yet another aero open day, this time in August and at Watts Bridge again near Esk.
Myself and James (34by151) were going to go along but if I can get enough people interested we can make it another meet. You may recall one of our fellow members Pete flew into Watts Bridge last year on their annual fly in day? Well this time it is going to be even bigger as it is their offical Open Day for the year.
Another excuse for a nice cruise out in the country in our Jaguars and open them up on the open roads?
Either way I'll be going for a look if anybody else is keen your welcome too
Here is last year's meet we did there:

My apologies chaps! In my excitement for planes I forgot we already have a meet for August:

So there will be no Jag meet at Watts Bridge on the 27th. My apologies for the confusion

I would like you to keep the Watts Bridge meet going.
My thing is a local car show I have committed to at a school fete, I would love to make Watts Bridge but can't again this year.
The school my wife works at and our kids attended for a number of years so we have committed to that for the day.

I had a beer in my garage with a guy who used to work for you a couple of weeks ago. Greg Thompson, top bloke.

Hi guys
Just under two weeks to go. I will be leaving Dicky Beach and heading inland (if my ole girl is up and running) via Peachester if anybody would like to meet up along the way.
Should be a great turn out.
So far going:
1) paulyling
2) 34by151
3) gardcycl (via his magnificent flying machine)
4) 9 LIVES
9 LIVES if you would like to PM me we can work out a meeting time bud. Should be a good day weather pending!

Heh guys
Looks like the admission fee is going to be $25 at the gate or $20 online:
Brisbane Valley Airshow | Jets-Warbirds-Aerobatics-Helicopters-RAAF
It doesn't say exactly but looks like the events start at 10am judging by their countdown.
Those that are going are we keen to all get there at 10am?
I am meeting 9 LIVES at the BP servo on Steve Irwin Way, Glenview. It takes about 1 hour and a half to get to Watts Bridge from there so maybe leave at the meeting point by 8:30am we should be fine?
Going to cut through Peachester, down near Woodford and out from there. Beautiful country drive if the weather holds up.
What do you guys think?
And to confirm that is Saturday the 27th of August.

Heh guys:
Here is the updated info on their website for anybody interested:

Is anybody else keen to come along?

1) paulyling
2) 34by151
3) gardcycl (via his magnificent flying machine)
4) 9 LIVES
Admission is $25 at the gate or $20 online prepaid.
Should be a good turn out, even if there are minimal jags coming
