Great idea !, I'm trying to hour build at the moment and am running out of things to do/places to go !!
I fly from Aberdeen but am willing to travel out of Scotland, Newcastle is a good mid-point and has an excellent night life !!!
Just a though !

As far as I am concerned, anything further north than sheffield is out as I would have to buy a new chart 
I think it should be commutable in as much as we should be able to get there and back in a day. I fly out of Redhill, this weekend is out 'cause of the Battle of Britian at Biggin, I think I am booked the weekend after that (last Cricket Match of the season ) but after that would be fine.
The problem is nights will be closeing in by then.
Should we look for a place with hard runways, we wouldn't want a weeks rain before the event to put it off. We need to get Infinretirement to organise this, If he does I can give him a lift to the event.

I think over the channel would be great for next season, but that Channel is an awful barrier for one-day VFR events!!
What about Sherburn on Saturday 30 Sep? A Saturday might give us all the extra day to get back, just in case of wx but Sun is fine for me too. If anyone wants a lift, I can collect up to 3 pax from a radius of 50 miles from Sherburn (effectively anywhere in Lincs, Notts, Yorks and bits of Derbys, Leics, Rutland etc.)

Excellent idea but my Cub's Permit has expired and will remain so until I get new wings struts. I can't see this happening for another month so I'll have to pass on this one. definitely up for the next one though. However, if anybody is going from the London/Luton area, I'd love to cadge a lift and split the fuel costs.

I have had a look at Nav box and it is about 2 hours flight time (give or take)
I can leave about 9ish, have to be back at Redhill at about 5ish, so what can you do to entertain me for the 4 hours or so I will be there. I quite fancy a go in an R22 (hint hint)
At time of going to press I have 3 spare seats, my missus will probably pass on this one (Paris is one thing, Yorkshire another) so if anyone is close to Redhill and fancies a lift, please drop me a line.

Right! Is that it then - Saturday 30 Sept at Sherburn in Elmet for the 'phirst pprune phly-in'? I'm up for it. 
NewBloke - are you going to open the thread advertising it and getting numbers since it was your brilliant idea. lowNslow, I will be flying up from Denham to Yorkshire on Friday if that's any help. Your'e welcome to a bed for the night in rightstuffer towers......
