GonTek,

Fear not matey. When I bumped into NC a couple of weeks back I asked him about the membership fee and he told me he still had a couple of things to sort out.

JC has a list of former NAC members and I would have thought that NC or Martin B will be writing to us about membership. But I could be wrong?

PD

Hi flyers,
hope you are all keeping well.

Mu Beta
good to see you tried doing something to raise funds for the air ambulance.

"not enough people to make it viable! ---- Thats Life!!!"

I think in this case it probably means - thats a life lost!!

Are you by any chance thinking of trying again?

regards

Hope2

Hi
I hope you all do not mind me calling in again?

been some interesting banter between my previouse two posts.
It looks like things are picking up for you all at last. so much so that raiders from Scotland are popping down to seek our local sheep! (just jokeing)

Topjet
thanks for posting the wings site up.
hope you can negotiate a lifetime free membership for former NAC members!!!!!

Gon Tec
is a "JOLLY" pilot speak for getting a mile high or just an abrevieation for getting jolly drunk?

best wishes

Angel Newcastle Aero Club

It is great to see the club up and running again and I know that flying is not exactly cheap but having done some flights of about 2 - 3 hours and getting the bill I have no option but go for a share in an aircraft. Do you think that they should do a deal if you are really using the aircraft.

Has anyone had any nasties with SE especially with a spinning HI and questionable compass?

Northumbria Flying School

DYKWIA

Good point although other organisations do charge up to 3 hours per day for no flying! Not sure if NC would be open to such a deal for non flying time?

SE - never have and never will fly that from the postings I have read!

Hope2 - I hope you are coming along to the grand opening?

Aero :chk pm.

Hope 2 : Nice to see you are still with us,the medication must be working your post is readable. (only joking my friend do you expect anything else from us !)
A jolly is nothing more than a fly about. (SE would not make a mile high )


Re: SE I had a flight in it and agree some things are "Questionable" but I must say in defence that this aircraft is not one of the fleet of NFS and any repairs will have been overseen by an LAE and there are allowable items that may not work, not grounding the aircraft. I certainly would not fly it again.
As stated in this thread previously another of the fleet should be back on line shortly and the item in question will be returned to its rightfull owner

NAC

Hi all,

I think NAC is famouse now its gone.

It got a mention in the new thread "Pprune Flyin" as a proposed / suggested destination. If it gets agreed who acts as host/hostess? and where will the Flyin PPrunes be entertained?

Topjet
thanks for the invite but I do not think i can attend the Wings opening do.
It looks like a private club for employees, accadamy customers & ex NAC members so I will not qualify.
I may also be away on a top secret Hedge Hog Hunting Rescue Raid with a bit of luck.

cheers

Thanks GonTec, I appreciate it.

Just back in from the Wings opening night and the place looks really good. It was packed and some familiar faces were in attendance too.

The 'Club' is up and running.

Anytime H.E.


The rest that is on the menu for you is just as much fun, the exams are a P.I.T.A.

Enjoy.

ps Enjoyed reading your account of lessons, Can you understand Greek now ? (no offence Malaka)

Im fluent in double dutch, my Greek ain't too good though.

You're right about the exams though P.I.T.A. is a very accurate description. Trying to find the time to study with 3 kids and a business is a little difficult. I've never been a study type person.

Just have to get it done, although I have found it really interesting in the main.
