It is with regret that, as the result of continually rising costs, the Committee has determined that it is no longer viable to run the Hastings Show in the current economic climate.

So, this leaves only the Southern Model Airshow as the last Model Airshow in the South, and the last one of the year ???

Anybody care to comment?

Having been there on two occasions, a very poor turnout, it's a shame though,,,,

Bummer huh... What sort of flying did you get to see when you went JC?

Went there last year, what flying did i see,,, a few grandpa's flying there clapped out engine aircraft, sorry to say, and a few traders, but one thing i will say, there was some quality models on display there from some well known Traders, and very cheap i must say ! Good turn out of Traders, poor turn out of model flyers and customers.
