flyin'ematlast, think of something which bothers you about helicopters. There will be something? Do you fly around wondering if the blades are gonna fly off? bring it up. I'm sure you'll talk to someone with thousands of hours, who knows someone wth thousands of hours, and they won't have heard of blades flying off. Well not many anyway. But you get my drift.
This is a chance to ask all those crazy questions going around in our heads. Did I mention licensed premises would be preferable?

I'm happy to organise in the Herts area, assuming we don't just combine with Paco at Wycombe (which is only about 15 mins from Herts, if there's nobody watching the motorways).

As there seem to be a couple of people in Herts (slight hijack), if anyone's interested in some group flying or a fly-in to somewhere in the area, drop me a PM.

Would definitely be interested to listen and learn, and have a beer if necessary.

I am also interested in joining in South East, as I am Herts based.
Could do weekends or week days

I would be interested in a Midlands / slightly northern venue.

Subject to flying prog, that day and the following day, obviously.

I'm always willing to listen and learn; I'm hoping to get this helicoptering stuff right one day.

Chaps, i'm going to check out a venue at Newcastle Airport this week for a northern meet but which day of the week would be most convenient?

I was thinking a Monday or Tuesday when it may be relatively quiet?

Any thoughts greatly appreciated!

I think that helimutt might have that one in hand already. Suggest a PM to him to check.

We did discuss some dates for the Newcastle meet the other day, he will know them.

helimutt /Knevil77: I am definately up for a meet near EGNT.... any day suits (subject to shift), but as I said earlier, I'm away on business until the middle of March (15th), but if you were to make it then, I'd be more than up for it PS: My comms are limited at the mo, so the best way to get in touch is a pm if you need any help

Things now looking like more planning required so have removed first provisional date for Newcastle.

Helimutt,

Feb 19th is good for me!

Have you a location in mind?

Still willing to speak to Wings if you want me to!
