No more CL-44 Association after this October...
See
http://www.cl44.org/ for a piece called "A Sad Farewell to the CL44 Association".
"
It is with great sadness that I have to announce the closure of the CL44 Association. This will occur following the 2 day 2008 Re-Union to be held on the 31st October and 1st November.
Several reasons have led to this decision which has been endorsed by all of the Association's Officers.
Firstly, the 'passing' of the Guppy meant that no airworthy 44's are left to report on.
Secondly,I have become aware that the recent 'fiasco' surrounding the various factions involved in the Guppy have become too personal.
Thirdly, many of our founder members have, sadly, passed away and my own feeling is that I do not want the Newsletter to become little more than an 'Obituary Column'
Alas-my own health has deteriorated lately and shows no sign of improvement.
Marvin, Kevin, Hanneke, Mike and myself would like to ask ALL members to attend the final re union. At time of writing, we still have places available on either night and some rooms (double and single) are also available for booking.
So-PLEASE get in touch with us to book your place at the RAF Club."
