      • Please be aware that the revised arrangements for car parking adjacent to the Concorde building published for the January talk remain in place for the foreseeable future.
      • If possible, please use the main car park and walk or use a wheelchair through the pedestrian gate.
      • If this is not possible, and car access is essential, prior to attending, please contact the museum staff preferably by e-mail: [email protected] or using the contact information given below and advise them:
        • the name/s of the car occupants.

General pre booking is not required for this talk, places will allocated on a first come first served basis.

The intention is to start the talk at 7:15 pm. However, I recommend that you aim to be at the Aerospace Bristol Museum by 7:00 pm. This is a potentially popular talk, please be aware that as usual a capacity limit applies.

There is no charge for entry to these talks. However, there will be the usual voluntary ‘bucket’ leaving collection to cover costs supplemented with a card reader to enable card or mobile phone contributions. At the end of the Talks season, the accrued surplus (if any) will be donated to the excellent Aerospace Bristol Museum.

I look forward to seeing you at the talk.
