Blimey, I didn't realise the CAA would permit this sort of thing (thoughts of Dago Red screaming 'round a pylon at Reno 98). I'd suggest Raynham as my choice, up on top of a hill, lots of big open fields to force land in when your engine goes up the spout, not too many villages close by and currently only being used for sheep grazing, most of all, you lads could all slum it around at mine. As for European participants, there must be loads of suitable Mustangs. Personally, I'd love to see what a "clipped, clapped and cropped' Mk5 spit could do around pylons, if it could outperform a Spit9 and Fw190 at low level just think of the potential.
