Military In Scale 12/2010

Times flies as once again, a thought that flicked through our minds more than once as we packed our cars and made our way to Folkestone for Euro Militaire. Held during the third weekend of September, the organisers always seem to be able to pick better weather than most summer air shows, having a lovely sunny weekend once again. This year was the 25th Anniversary of the event and though I felt that the 25th occasion was rather muted in terms of celebration, the show itself was a great success. The outdoor displays were still present but no sign of the German tanks and other full size AFVs this time. Inside the halls, the usual traders were there and appeared to be doing well. It was especially busy on Saturday morning around all of the trade stands, large numbers of boxes being seen loaded into plenty of cars at the end of the afternoon.
