Posted on Martin's behalf, an update of the event coming up this Saturday 4th September.

Porsches from all regions are welcome to attend this Saturday's Porsche and Planes event organised by R21 and the 912 Register.

Please try to arrive between 10 and 10.30am on September 4th to display your Porsche with the planes for a photoshoot, enjoy the air displays, lunch and talks by the world's best pilots. There will also be opportunities for taster aerobatic flights.

I look forward to seeing you on the day,

Sounds great,

I presume that this is open to members and their families, my life has already been threatened on the grounds that a) one wants a ride in the Porsche and b) that looks like fun I'm coming!!!!!!
