Sounds like you had a great day. Shame we couldn't get there this year but we've had a very busy season and with preparations for the RBR next week thought it better not to stray too far from home so went to a rather smaller auto/aero meet at Popham Airfield. Not quite such a long list of Triumphs there - our Bond Equipe, Bob McDay's Vitesse, and a Spitfire in the visitor's car park with its lights left on! (hope the owner remembered in time!) I believe there were a few other Triumphs dotted around the field but I haven't been too well lately so spent a lovely relaxing day lying in the sun regaining my strength for next week. Various small planes flew in & out during the day including microlights and bi-planes and I was rather tempted by a Tiger Cub for sale - a bargain at #1250 - but figured we have enough problems with a dozen or so MoTs each year without getting into the problems of airworthiness certificates! With luck though we will put Duxford on the calendar for next year - no RBR to worry about then!
