Spitfire SL721 and "open day" in Ottawa

Hi Spitfire boffins.
A couple pages back I mentioned about Mike Potter having some sort of "open day" with SL721 in Ottawa. He phoned me and we were discussing the first weekend in August as I guess that it will be in conjunction with the Air Museum there. Nothing definite yet but people on this site were saying to keep them up to date as early as possible. You can't get any earlier than this. I will indeed keep everyone here up to speed as to what is happening.
He also told me that he has been flying AU-J (as he now refers to her) quite a bit and getting some practice in. She was laid up for one day getting a cracked exhaust stack fixed.
I am looking forward to going to Ottawa whenever the event happens.
Cheers
Bob S.
