It’s a good idea to arrive early on one of Temora’s flying days. Although you may have to wait outside until the gates open at 1000, as with the people in this queue
(main photo), that itself is a relaxing social event. Everyone comes equipped with chairs for the day, so it’s just a matter of making oneself comfortable and having a chat!
The first good reason to be early is that there is limited space in the carpark nearest the Museum and traffic soon is diverted into one of the overflow carparks. It can be quite a step from there, particularly if you are carrying chairs, cameras, and a picnic
(NB alcohol and smoking are prohibited in the Museum area). The other good reason to be early is to be able to find a preferred spot and settle in for the day. A clear field of view is not the only consideration, remember that you may find yourself sitting in the sun for much of the day, so somewhere with a little shade also is a consideration. The
second photo shows some of the crowd outside the main Museum hangar (a preferred spot).
