Our quote is recycled from an early edition of SC, some fifteen years ago, from an item on my club's regular appearances at village fetes and shows during the summer. We had a regular 'gigging' schedule back then, often with a display every weekend. Even when we were unable to fly our static shows always created a lot of interest in the club and the hobby in general. The question in this month's header was the one asked by more than 50% of our audience. Over the years interests changed and the fete circuit fell by the wayside. But this year a new fete committee in a neighbouring village rediscovered our details and got in touch to see if we could provide a static display as we'd once done. Our membership and new secretarial team rose to the challenge and turned up on the village green with a fine collection of models, from a large gas turbine F-16, through vintage, sport, scale and gliders, all of which proved a great hit.
