Here is one for you,

Religion can be argued on as can politics but how the hell can you charge money on an air show?

Is it just me or does anyone else not understand this sentence?

Nobby I believe it’s probably a shite post and that’s the reason why no one has replied, it reads perfectly well.

Nope, read it three times now and each time I come up with WTF

How can you charge for an air show?

Barry, your posts rarely read well. Try using some punctuation, preferably correctly - oh, and read them through before you hit the green button.

It makes perfect sense to me, how can you charge for an airshow?

You pissed again?

Duxford make shed loads out of it and cause gridlock around Cambridge every time it is on. I think it is more about other events going on at the venue.

Ok now you’ve dispensed with the religion and politics bollocks, it makes sense.

to answer your question, selling tickets on the Internet or on the gate is the usual way to charge for an airshow

It makes perfect sense to you because you wrote it and you know what you meant when you wrote it. Nobody else could understand it, which surely must tell you something. Your later rendering of the question does make sense, but the answer is pretty obvious. People pay to go to air shows so that they can be close up to the planes at the show, rather than watching from a distance. Can’t say it’s something I’d be interested in going to, but plenty of other people do.

But how do they collect the money for the tickets? Do they go walking the streets and say

“Are you looking up at that plane?”

“Well yes I glanced at it as I was curious what a Hawker Hurricane was doing over Lincoln on a Tuesday afternoon”

“Well for a glance its only £3, do you want to stare at it fully on its return for another £4?”

Lol forever.

Everyone: “dafuq you on bout Baz?”

BS: “everyone is wrong, it makes perfect sense”.

I understand that if you are caught looking without paying, someone dressed in a flying jacket and white silk scarf will suddenly appear in front of you and poke you in the eye with a pair of rusty callipers.

Be warned price pikeys.

Bournemouth Airshow is free.

I believe the charging part of the Airshow is if you want to go the airport and look around at the planes close up, then you have controlled entry to the area where the actual planes are. However if you just want to watch them fly and stuff then you can’t charge.

Good job Bearsy is very bisnezz at the moment or he would see that comment and say that he isn’t, but we all know he is.

Indeed. Qui s’excuse s’accuse, as the French would say.

Very true indeed, I did see a caravan and loads of dags on Sunday, I didn’t see Goatboy sell any though so he could be innocent.
