Country: | I went to the show and what a blast. I really enjoyed the Red Lion in Hinxton, a short walk from the Wellcome Research Centre. I am planning a family trip to Switzerland in 2009, end of July and August; and I am requesting information on attending a good air show while over there. Short day trip or over night travel considered. Does anyone here have any suggestions, or maybe some web sites to search?
Thanks,
SP | |
