Our new site is live!!

Welcome to our newly transferred site. Ian Pallen has worked extremely hard to transfer all the excellent pages previously designed by Eugene Lobo. Big thankyou to Ian. We owe Eugene a great debt for all his artistic efforts and wish him well now that he has relinquished control to Ian. He will always be welcome at Bruntingthorpe. Now we are live you are invited to browse the site- there are many interesting stories about Teasin’ Tina and her support team. Our next public demonstration is on Sunday May 29th during the Cold War Jets Open Day.
