Flying' Dutch,

You're out of date. Tatenhill now has a cafe on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. If Margaret knows we're coming, she might even make more homemade cakes!

Sleap's cafe closed, but it's now reopened. However, they don't have nearly as good a choice as they did under the old management.

If we go to Tatenhill, I vote for Saturday, since I'm instructing there anyway on Saturdays. And if I'm not for some reason, I'll fly in in the C150. If it's anywhere else, I'd prefer Sunday.

Would an arrive Saturday, depart Sunday be of interest to others?

If I can make the final destination/date I will be certainly staying over night.

Tatenhill's cafe is good and Margaret's cakes are the best I've come across at any airfield.

I fly the Tatenhill based Decathlon CS so if anybody fancies a go,
I'll swap you for for a flight in yours, providing it's something 'different'.

Whirly are you instructing this weekend? I'll say hello as I'll be there Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning.

OK it looks like we have the location (although Derby sounds tempting) what about the date? I vote for the weekend of 25/26th July, prefereably the Saturday.

err..... LnS - which calender are you using?

25/26 June is a weekend - can't make it or 23/24 July is a weekend - can't make that either.

How about 2/3 July , as Post No 1 did say end June/beginning July

26/06 Old Buck

May I be so bold as to suggest Old Buck on Sunday 26th?

OB Airshow 05

Lots to see and do but you will need to arrange an rv/contact methodology as it gets quite busy.

Clashing with Flying for Fun will mean a lot of people won't go. How about 25th June or 9th July?

Well spotted Kolibear , had a touch of brain slip there

Why don't we all meet up at FFF? Most of the Ppruner's who are PFA members will be going anyway and for anybody who thinks it's only for people who build Flying Fleas it could be an eye opener.

Just in relation to Sheffield's landing fee, there is a free landing voucher for June, in June's Pilot Mag.

25th June, Tatenhill looks like the likely date. I will post somethng in a few days (on nights at the mo') possibly wed.

FFF at Kemble, if someone would like to start a new thread regarding that, I just don't have the time right now.

Anybody still up for Tatenhill on the 29th? I'm going to try to make it but the builders are starting on Thursday so it might get zapped for me.

Not for me I'm afraid, some else has got the aircraft on that day.
