Aeroboot/Aerojumble update doing the rounds!
"Re-booking details have just been emailed out for the Outdoor Aeroboot/Aerojumble on Sat 3rd July, initially this is just to those sellers that had spaces booked at our cancelled sale in 2020 – other opportunities will be advised after 18.04.21

Fresh NAM Aeroboot/Aerojumble info picked up from elsewhere:
"This morning we held a brief socially distanced site meeting to explore the possibility of expanding the number of spaces that will be available for the Outdoor Aeroboot/Aerojumble on Sat 3rd July 2021.
This has been made possible as there will be no visiting cockpit displays as would normally be on site for this sale; further details will follow once the options have been evaluated.

As of yesterday's post arriving at the museum; the Newark Aeroboot / Aerojumble on Saturday 3rd July, 2021 had 30+ sellers booked in for this outdoor sale!
By: - 11th May 2021 at 10:16 Permalink
Well, it looks like the autojumble world is slowly coming back to life, so let's hope the relatively small number of traders pre-booked for the 3rd is just a sign of caution about Covid and the weather on the day, etc?
I do hope there's a really good turn out of traders and visitors (read "buyers") on the 3rd, I'm already preparing for it!
By: - 11th May 2021 at 21:20 Permalink
The seller numbers are getting close to a typical Cockpit-Fest outdoor Aeroboot sale level & there is space for more due to the lack of cockpit display areas - a few 'old-timers' also seem to have returned this time as well!
It's starting to feel like a good sale might take place.

It's been a funny start to the year, but I thought that today's good news was worthy of starting a new thread for 2021.
Newark Air Museum has a GAF Jindivik coming to its site in eastern Nottinghamshire.
