Don't get me wrong D D I wasn't complaining!

Thats a pity Fergi. However we have a few things planned for the year. When is your Entry PU??

You never know

Am over for the PU on 5th March be in the UK from the Monday before till the Friday after as it takes so long to get down here. If there is anything on let me know. DD let me know how long you will be in this neck of the woods and will see if we can meet up somewhere, at least get you away from shake city for a while!!!

I cannot make the "Donny shuffle" (trains to drive),but wish you well on the 27th with your endeavourers:ok:. Looking forward to 70th Celebrations next year.

So is there any news from the WSOp leaders meeting today re the above statement???:(

Have they broken the venerable TriMotor as well?

Rumour has it . . .

Don't believe all you hear DD. :=

Anyway see you Saturday. I hope we don't get stranded up there in the snow.....:E

Oh good - I've got far more hours in the DC10 but my great love was the Tristar - both military and civil.

You can always come round my house K.

See you there . . .

Thanks K.

Err, since I'm now a member, do I get to see the minutes of that huge gathering in the metropolis Doncaster upon Ice?

Happy Christmas and hopefully a New Year containing more hope for the future than we've all endured this Annus Horriblis.

Indeed you will DD, when I get mine in the New Year

Meet and Greet
 

Guys

Just as reminder the first association event is taking place this weekend. Two of the committee are away however there will be a book open for potential members to join and reserve a place for the anniversary weekend in September.

Enjoy

It was good to see the boys again on Saturday 12 Mar. Not enough turned up, but those who did enjoyed several sherbets together with a healthy slice of BS. Lights were swung and sandbags sat upon - excellent! Then off on the town in small groups so as not to frighten the horses. The thought police will catch up with you eventually Nick Nicholls.

Glad to hear it went well.

If you are unaware there exists a Face-book group page as a pre-cursor to the web page(imminent). Already a happy band of nearly 60 current and ex serving types are members.
Some recruitment-alas for non flying jobs-already looking like it may be underway on the page too.:ok:

Dave Kildea will be able to help........... if you can find his profile.......:E
