G'day Phil,

Thanks for bringing it to the notice of WIX. I'll almost certainly see you there. A few of the Warbirdz folks are looking at going.

Cheers,
Matt

A quick reminder the launch of 1st COCKPITFEST AUSTRALIA is happening tomorrow in Melbourne with 3 warbird aircraft - Jaguar, Su-22 and Hunter cockpits on show hopefully, numerous aircraft instruments panels, a few bits of flightgear and a reenactor - myself dressed in 1960s USAF Hi Viz flightgear - present to educate and inform up to maybe 20-40 aviation enthusiasts.

Photos will be available next week on various forums no doubt.

Regards

Phil
