Heads now need skimming and then it needs building back up...

Just had confirmation from Shaun that we're booked in for the event.
We have our own area booked, enough for 20 cars, so we need to fill this space with some interesting stuff.
On top of the gayzebo and flags etc, your ideas will be welcome..
James... Any chance of a F-35 JSF for the day??
PS. It is an Airfield and I'm sure it can VTOL into a marked WYIOC bay? A nice low, fast run would certainly be a highlight
