I'm in the somewhat strange situation of living within a couple of miles of Kemble and will still be flying an aircraft into the rally.
Could I make a plea for all intending to arrive by air to use the
published procedures both in the air and on the ground. I know
all too well that local public opinion is very much against some of the aerial acivity at Kemble and we need that opinion to turn in our favour - we will not achieve that by overflying local villages at
low level and creating a nuisance. Some of this opinion is without
doubt nimbyism BUT some is also justified as certain operators
just don't give a stuff about the locals - did someone say Hunters ?!
If we want the PFA to return to Kemble lets do it properly.
nb If you can drag yourself away from the beer tent there is an
excellent two-day summer fayre in Crudwell - about two miles south - people apparently arrive by the busloads.
Keep it safe - loadsa aeroplanes about..............
