Hi all here is a post event press release for the 2010 David Hack Classic Meet

and various other classic, GA and sport aircraft types

 

All these appearing aircraft made a major contribution to the sucess of this charity event so I can not express enough my appreciation to the above operators of these aircraft. And wish to also extend this to all the vollunteers as well, from those working and looking after the airside to the setting up and pull down crews and all those involved in the catering. Massive job for the time frame alocated.

 

And thank you to the local Regional Council too, who have been very accomodating and for next year we are looking to make big changes with the set-up too, especially getting the aircraft closer to the public. Which I know wasn't the easiest this year, however we had guidelines to work to. just a matter of getting the balance right. But there will be changes to the set-up. And yes from all post event reports looks very positive for the event to be run next year.

 

Oh and not to mention the 576 vehicles which were displayed as well. vehicles from 1908 through to the some of the newer Lamboghini's (which spit had already been kind to mention) and all the other vintage classic types one could imagine. A very special and unique event.

 

Kind regards

 

Scott
