Now in Uetersen Heist in Germany for this weekend's show after a great few days in Poland. The water ops there were very successful and much appreciated by the public and the show organisers. The photo below was taken by Michal Prokurat.

Over the next three weekends, Miss Pick Up will be in mainland Europe. On Wednesday we fly out to Poland where we will be displaying at the Mazury Airshow which is held over a lake. Based at Ketryzn, we will be operating from the water for the show on Saturday/Sunday 4th/5th August. The next day we fly to Uetersen-Heist near Hamburg in Germany where will be appearing at the Wings & Wheels event between 10th and 12th of August. Then on Monday 13th we will take the Catalina to Bad Sassendorf near Dortmund for the Soest Airshow on August 18th/19th. The Catalina will return to Duxford on the being of the 19th.

Following a great weekend at Farnborough we now look forward to next weekend and two seaside shows on either side of Ireland. Based out of Weston Dublin, we will be flying at the Foynes Air Show on the west coast on Saturday 28th July and at the Bray Air Display on the east coast on both Saturday 28th and Sunday 29th. We had a great time displaying at these two events last year and can't wait for our return visit! If you live in those areas or are lucky enough to be on holiday there next weekend, do come and see us display.

Garry Short, our indefatigable engineer, has now been able to replace the faulty instrument that kept us grounded at the weekend and we are looking forward to flying the Catalina down to Farnborough on Friday for static display at the International Airshow. The Cat' will be on display for three days, returning to our Duxford base on Monday 23rd. If you are planning to attend the 'show, do seek us out and meet the crew manning our sales stand.
