I'll be on the Airspace & Safety Initiative stand at AeroExpo at High Wycombe tomorrow if anybody is going.  Nothing to do with RadarBox, just doing the day job :-)

There should be some RadarBoxes at the show as well ready to be bought :)

Ah! Excellent news.  Do you know what stand they will be on, I only had a quick look at the exhibitors list.

I can't remember if I published this link before.   Very interesting reading.  The latest edition is the Winter 2008/2009 (109) publication.

I am High Wycombe based and just spent a great day at Aeroexpo.  Highlight is a Qatari DA40 that was ferried to the show direct from Doha over 4 days.  Does anyone know if it is mode S equipped.
Here is someone elses picture of it. http://www.airplane-pictures.net/image49584.html
I hope I can pick it up on the box tomorrow or Monday.

Hello gentlemen. Glad you enjoyed our presence at the show, or at least the presence of our client's aeroplane. I'll be moving it to Shoreham on either Thursday or Friday.
We move plenty of interesting aeroplanes: www.abovetheoceans.com.
Thanks for the images.

Regards, Brian and Patsy.

Thanks Dave, my balding pate suffered badly!! However, we had a great show; it was a perfect end to a good three day ferry flight from Doha,

Brian, saw the aircraft - very nice - i also recognised you (i think) as one of the many instructors I had at Southampton in the late 1980's - the only flight i did with you (i think) was in G-SHIV to Goodwood as the wx was not good enough for my planned lesson.

[AboveTheOceans]

Hello Paul, I remember you well, and your memory is not entirely at fault, we certainly flew together, in late December 86 and early January 87. I have us down as having flown one of the AA5's, but it's possible you came over to Goodwood with me in SHIV as well. Why didn't you say hello?

All the best,

Brian

Hi Brian,

glad to see my memory is not completely gone yet. I definately remember flying SHIV to GW as it was the only twin I flew - seem to remember coming back in one of the AA5's. As for not saying hello there always seemed to be a lot of people around the aircraft and I was not 100% sure that I was correct in my identification.
