Do you have more details? Originally it was based at Panshanger?

One way to alienate yourself from the rest of the flying community.
Are the Anti-colls blue?

I hear the Career Criminal Flying Club is being revived. Looking forward to some exciting tail chases.:ok:

What next. Tax Inspectors? Traffic wardens?

Piperarcher yes you are right it used to be at Panshanger. If you search the name of the club you will find the website which will be regularly updated with news and developments.

Hi.

That is Great News! :D

The Police Flying Club, to celebrate lets watch this footage.

POLICE FLYING CLUB - British Pathé (http://www.britishpathe.com/video/police-flying-club)

Yes it was based at Panshanger Aerodrome from 1956 to 1960, had a couple of Tiger Moth Bi-Planes. Location was on the North Side.

I researched Panshangers History when I was doing save panshanger, and this was one of 2 films on the aerodrome, the other was a 1967 indoor cycle track.

I would love to see the new Police Flying Club up-close. My web address is: ab-initio.wix.com/holwellhydeheritage
