Thats a pity. I do prefer the flyin part over airshows. like talking to other flyers & builders, normally find me in the pub during an airshow, so that part is wasted on me. Will wait until October to decide to attend. is 3500nm round trip for us. Andrew

Andrew,  Airventure is struggling from what I hear.  They are not the favoured ones with the NRM council as they attempt to bleed money from the show.  I am out of the organising this year, so am bitterly disappointed after loosing 2 years of my life to get it running.  Charges have all been jacked up, so exhibitors are down.  Paul is still saying he is coming to do a seminar, but I am advising caution at this stage as number may well be down as well.   Blokes with rotaries that were coming have now decided to stay home, so I may not even go other than as a visitor.   Aust does not have the numbers for the money on the airshow,  $40,000.  The public are really not that interested either as only got 1500 to attend the airshow last year at $15,00 a head.  I hear this year it will now be $25,00 a head.  Not really a way to entice a "not" interested public  Very sad.  Neil.

Neil. I'm planning on flying to Airventure Australia in a mates RV, tried to get there last year but had to cancel due to work. Will have to interrupt harvest this year as they moved the date. if possible would like to visit and talk rotary and see what your up to with your PSRU.
