Interesting news is that another flying training organisation is planning to move into Barton. This will put added pressure on LAC who have had the exclusive use of the airfield for over half a century. Now for the first time there will be competition for student training etc. etc.

The LAC Treasurer resigned shortly after the AGM in mid April. The new Company Secretary has also resigned and is no longer a member of LAC.

Aircraft continue to depart to pastures new. A rough tally of membership renewals, which were due by end of April, is suggesting that approximately 300 members have voted with their feet: if true then a sizeable loss of income.
