Decent Microlight Syndicate in North Hampshire

Hi All
I'm looking for members to start a syndicate in North Hampshire, not far from Farnborough. I have found some cheap hangerage and would like to find two or three like minded souls to go in with. I have microlight NPPL and would like the group to have a fairly capable aircraft such as a Jabiru 450 or a Kitfox Mk2 or later. This should also allow the aircraft to be re-registered as a group A plane should the members wish in the future.

The reason for a microlight rather than group A is that it is possible to fly into France with a Microlight NPPL but not an NPPL SSEA. (If I've got this wrong I'm sure I'll be corrected.)

Total cost for the aircraft should not be more than £20k though could be as little as £11k. This means an outlay of £3k-6k each plus monthly costs of £30-40 and hourly costs of £10 plus fuel at around 12lt/hr. (approx £25/hr wet rate)

If you're bored of Popham or Blackbushe then please get in touch. I'm a friendly guy and am keen for the group to be social in its approach.

Please PM me if interested.

Thanks for those, but Chilbolton is an hours drive for me. Other than that its my ideal field; secluded, relaxed, friendly. I just wish it was closer.

Come on chaps, where are the microlighters? There must be a few of you around the Camberley/Farnborough/Fleet area.
