Frans - I echo your sentiments. It was great to meet Ilona & you, and
all the other folk. I've only been to a couple of smaller, more
informal, events on the continent before and maybe resisted going
because I want to finish my own Europa rather than cadging rides in
others' planes.
Tim Houlhan invited me to go with him this time in G-BZTH and I am so
glad I went. I'm only sorry that my commitments here in Cheltenham
today dragged us away on Saturday afternoon.
>Thanks to all participants to make this happen!
The organisation and work put in by so many was much appreciated.
Everyone was so welcoming - Tim & I were specially impressed with the
kindness shown to us by Jacqueline Roelofs.
>If there is enough interest, we will post some pictures of the event
I didn't take as many pictures as maybe I should have but will try to
sort out a few that might be of general interest.
Where to put them?
It seems the Matronics photo-sharing mechanism is not well-suited to
multiple uploads as it's a manual operation.
The EuropaOwners Gallery seems to exist mainly for the building
process; not sure about the etiquette of re-purposing it towards
fly-in events.
