Are we 74 years late or is it a half past seven kick-off?

Isn't Angelina Jolie supposed to have said she's learning to fly so she can do this kind of missionary flying stuff. Will she be there?

Not that Bryan Pill on his own wouldn't be enough of a draw, of course...

Shucks! I'll be far away. MAF is an organisation worthy of the highest respect, and I'd have loved to be able to hear this.

An evening with.....

Yep, sounds good..

Just so happens that i took off 11 days from work around my 30th Birthday (18th Oct), to attend the MAF Enquirers Day on Thursday 14th at Otford Manor in Sevenoaks, kent (I live in Manch), and to attend a week long mission in Hailsham also.

VP8: You'll have to make yourself known on the evening - but don't expect to be impressed... I have only 20hrs on C150's, and have not flown for nearly 3yrs - still working hard towards, and exercising faith towards a vision to fly for MAF someday (THE only reason i want to get my licences...), but as they say, 'In His time - not mine' .... Just geting concerned though now i've hit my first main speed limit of 30!

Suppose at the end of the day He's the P1, in my life - not me.
Best Regards
