To be held at the Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre, East Kirkby, near Spilsby.

Location/event details: here

This will be our 7th visit to the fireworks spectacular at East Kirkby. Previous years have seen a good turnout from UKBEG members.

Seeing (and hearing) four Merlin engines running at night with their exhausts spitting flames is something else and well worth the trip. The fireworks aren't bad either :P....

3.00 Lancaster taxi-run
4.00 Bomber Command Kit Talk 1
6.00 Hog Roast begins
6.00 Searchlight Demonstration
6.15 Bomber Command Kit Talk 2
7.00 Lancaster taxi-run
7.30 Searchlight Demonstration
8.00 Fireworks

Admission prices:
Adults & Seniors: £10.00 ( Hog Roast Extra)
Children aged 10-15: £3.00
Under 10's free

FYI We're staying at the Red Lion, Revesby on Saturday night and then on Sunday we're going to the sand racing in Mablethorpe - details of which can be found here....

We'll be at the Aviation Centre during the afternoon before going to check into our room at the Red Lion, returning around 6.00pm for the fireworks etc.

It'll be very busy in the evening - if you can't find us our mobile number is 0792 626 5582.

Not exactly a two-wheel friendly forecast this weekend, in fact it might be pants for later this afternoon and evening, but a lot better (relatively speaking) for tomorrow, so it's a 'have waterproofs and heated grips will travel' scenario.

Kev & Ronnie, see you tonight at the Aviation Centre and/or tomorrow in Mablethorpe :P....

As Jane so eloquently put it, it's been a grrrilliant weekend in Lincolnshire. Prepare for the worst and hope for the best - and we got the best. Over the whole 262 miles we only had a few spits and spots of rain and mostly dry roads, which was amazing given the forecast. To have such a brilliant riding weekend at this time of year is such a buzz :P .....

Saturday at the Aviation Centre was excellent, with lots of people about in the afternoon and the professional firework display was as stunning as ever. The finale was breathtaking - certainly beats nailing a Catherine wheel to a fence post in your back garden. We met up in the evening with Kev and Ronnie for the display as planned but we didn't spot any other UKBEG members in the very large crowd.
