Looking well, I will be doing Cosford as my big English show this year. The RAF 100th show was too big an opportunity to turn down and I can't do RIAT due to the dates this year.

Is it worth going with the Cosford club or just a standard ticket? Has anyone been in it before and is it worth it?
Also, is there a departures day on the Monday? Might be tempted to hop off the train for a bit on my way back to the airport as it passes through Cosford.

Is that in addition to museum and SoTT aircraft, then I'll be impressed?

Been purchased by an operator in the UK, hopefully it'll still be able to attend the show.
