But we have Tigger!

You can tell a builder from an archaeologist by the size of his trowel. Mine is a small one!

I meant a real paper book with photos of every one of them. ....didn't think you'd done that?

I have added a Margam Sands thread to the Bombing Ranges section and will copy the relevant posts, assuming I remember :)

Margam posts have now been copied to the Margam thread /community/showthread.php?9640-Margam-Sands

Welcome John. I assume you live near that little airfield with the short and narrow runway :)

You'd buy one, I'd buy one, a few others would, and six months down the line they'd be remaindered at £4.99 a copy. Regrettable but that's life.

Have to admit though, that 20 years later they would fetch a fortune on Ebay.

Plan A is always more effective when the problem you are working on understands that Plan B will involve the use of dynamite :twisted:

Hi Guys,
I am a local and Manston is in SE Kent! there is a group who have decided that they want it shut but they are becoming a minority. the News that KLM are to start flights to Amsterdam next year is great and I for one hope it will succeed. I live about half a mile from the runway so I see the comings and goings.
cheers
John :D


KLM using Manston to fly to the Continent is excellent news.....now if they'd just start flights from Newcastle to Manston and back ( I have to run right down the country periodically - Mother still lives near Deal)

Late last night upon the stair, I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today Oh how I wish he'd go away

No book but we have the photos but I cant say its all of them. Not a good time for publishing at the moment.

I don't see the point. What we are preparing is a PHOTOBOOK also for people interested in photography. These people exist. I reckon that most of you did not shoot the same quality of photos. Or am I wrong? In an earlier mail I mentioned the towers in the book so far...

I like photobooks, as do a lot of people. I don't think we need to debate who takes the best photos though!! There are some great photos on this forum and i know that the Airfield Reseach Group has hundreds of control tower photos that are ready to publish too.

the comment earlier is very valid regarding price, the majority of books reduce in value and price within weeks of being published so the content, quality, finish and price needs to be spot on to start with, otherwise it will struggle to sell regardless of how good the book is.

i am a fan of these coffee table style photo books and i wish the project luck.

Make sure you check out the other parts of the forum and if you have any questions then ask. one thing i have learnt is peopleon this forum like to see new members taking part, i for one look forward to seeing your posts on AiX.
