Hi David 48,
The Peterborough Area Model Boat Club usually have a stand at Intermodellebau in Hall 5, the boat hall. We are proposing to take part in the show next year although detailed planning has not yet started. That said, we are likely to travel to Dover to catch a ferry to Calais on the outbound leg. The return trip will depend on ferry timings but may well be from Dunkirk to Dover, sailing in the early hours of Monday 20 Apr 15.
In previous years, some of us have travelled to Dortmund by air but, more recently, flight times and cost have shown surface travel to be a more convenient and cost effective option for us.
The comments in the preceding posts are concurred, you really need to spend at least 2 days at the show to see everything. If you choose to visit Intermodellebau, next year, do make time visit the PAMBC stand where you will be made to feel very welcome.
