All RAA there ...???

RUBBISH!

There are several active businesses there working on/with GA Aircraft including a flying school, a refurb business and a couple of LAMES from memory. The lovely lady at Pumkin Head doesn't discriminate and neither does the aero shop where you can also get a cup of tea or a cool drink, or a hangar for your aircraft overnight and a hire car to take you into town.

Don't wipe the airfield off just because the Council puts up a stupid damned sign that means virtually nothing if you are a normal, responsible pilot. And perhaps give them credit for widening the bitumen, putting in a new terminal building to enhance the facilities and promoting the "air park" environment concept in a business climate where most councils are trying to subdivide.

It just happens that the AAAA is holding its Spring Fly In and AGM at YYWG 21-23 September which will probably see at least 100 aircraft arrive there for the weekend. Most of these are GA aircraft sans training wheels and I suggest all you knockers book your accommodation early because it will be BIG!
