Q: Is the ground suitable for mobility vehicles?
A: Yes the show event is mainly on grass and every effort is made to keep it as suitable as possible to allow mobility vehicles to use the site.

Q: Are we allowed to have a BBQ?
A: Sorry we are afraid not. Due to the numbers of vintage vehicles and the large amounts of fuel they have to carry (a tank needs 4 gallons of fuel to drive a mile!) we try to do everything we can to minimise fire risk.

Q: The Low Emission Zone (LEZ) How do I stand bringing my vehicle to the show as the show location falls into the LEZ?
A: Damyns Hall lies on the very edge of the LEZ in fact the border line for the LEZ is in Warwick Lane. (see map on LEZ page) Which is also the border of Damyns Hall. As there is an entrance to the site from Warwick Lane it is possible to enter the show without going into the LEZ. As Military and Flying Machines is held on private ground the LEZ is not applicable to the show site.

Q: How do I find out if my vehicle is compliant to enter the LEZ ?:
A: Go to the Transport for London LEZ web site http://www.tfl.gov.uk/roadusers/lez/ where you can enter your vehicle in to their search engine which will then tell you if your vehicle is compliant or not.

Q: I have heard there are plans to expand the LEZ to outside of the M25?
A: On discussion with Transport for London they have confirmed there no plans at this time to expand the LEZ
