Service Flying Clubs
Dear All,
After a stint at sea I am ready to revalidate my SEP(Land) rating and join a club. Unfortunately the club I used to belong to, Vectair, at Goodwood, has closed.
As a serving member of the armed forces can any of you suggest a service club in the Hants area (near Portsmouth would be nice). I have tried contacting Fleetlands Flying Association (FFA) by e-mail and letter but to no avail. If any of you have a contact in FFA could you please PM me their details.
Many thanks for any help.

Keep it dark blue - Try Yeovilton Flying Club http://www.rnasyflyingclub.flyer.co.uk/
I'm sure someone (can't think for a moment who ) will reply with all the details you need to know about BZNFC.
Did my first solo there many moons ago and it was indeed a fine place to fly

'JP is still going strong; unfortunately 'JR is now with another organisation. So there are only the 3 aircraft there now.

All,
Many thanks for the replies.
Sat here on this dreary day looking out of my window at the dockyard has got me day dreaming of being airborne on a clear crisp sunny winters day. I think the rest of this morning will be spent making some calls!!
Cheers
