Nick and Val invited me along to an open day at <a href="https://northcoatesflyingclub.com/" target="_blank">North Coates Air Club</a>. It's an old grass airstrip that dates back to the Royal Flying Corp in the First World War. The event was a typical Lincolnshire event with all the appearance of going back in time to the 1950s, even the coffee was only one pound per cup.

The aircraft were interesting - a flyby from the Coastguard helicopter; a WW2 American Mustang; A Robinson helicopter and an autogyro. There were also several fixed wing aircraft doing circuits and bumps.
