Yep! Disappointed that there's no Vulcan this year, and the F35 is grounded at the moment from what I understand - but still looking forward to it!

Got the hospitality invite through from AMJ a couple of weeks ago so looking forward to having a look at some new watches.

Had an awesome day at RIAT. Thanks to Breitling and AMJ for a memorable day in the lounge. Amazing how I had several people asking where to buy the VIP passes. Even one offer to buy it off me!!!

Unfortunately I was thinking to buy a Chronospace I saw in the dsiplay but went back later and it had gone....

sorry it wasn't a chronospace...upon further searching i think its a Aerospace Evo with the mesh bracelet. It certainly had a white face. I don't think it was the red arrows version....I can't find it on the Breitling site though. I will ring AMJ when I get time.

The Chronospace is not in production anymore. Only the automatic version is still made. And there was an LE with a L39 Breitling Jet team plane on the dial.

Andrew was trying to get hold of a cobra yellow dial seawolf for me, but it appears there are none in the country at the moment. However i'm expecting a phone call soon :P

On another note, I visited the RAF museum at Hendon for the first time yesterday. A fantastic place for a day out, for everyone, airplane enthusiasts or not.

Yellow dial is one I'd like too, good luck with it. I've not been to Hendon, but might do so over the summer. Friend of mine is a member of the RAF Club in Mayfair and took me for lunch there - so much to see, it's almost like a museum in itself.
