Once overheard a pilot asking a LARS unit for a routing to Birmingham. Couldn't resist pressing the transmit button and suggesting he go via Crewe. Better not suggest this to Whirly....

Anyone else remember that stupid song, or am I the oldest on frequency?

I'll probably still be Cubless on the 14th unless the PFA are really rapid at turning the paperwork around.

Cahliban, any chance of a lift?

Hi LownSlow, not a problem We'll probably be in an Archer from Elstree or the DR400 from the farm (depending on how wet it is). Give me a call....

Sorry cannot make the 14th - I am away for a long weekend, somewhere hopefully a little warmer.

Have fun and will try to make the next one..

Checked the diary today and I am okay for the 14th, ex Gamston if anyone wants a lift.

Kemble... isn't that the place with the infamous ostrich farm?
We aren't allowed to overfly the farm, it seems that when the place was very active some of these birds being paddocked on old concrete standings had the habit of doing "ostrich type things" when frightened and knocking themselves out!

I would be tempted but as an RSPCA supporter it doesn't quite fit my profile

Question

Is there something special going on at Bourn that day? Their website was last updated in 1918 so no info there. Haven't been to Bourn since spending a pleasant day circuiting there during training, so might drop in on the way to or from Kemble.

The Flyer List are having a Bourn Butty (renowned bacon sarnie plus a new feature - Onion Bhajis) fly-in on the 14th. Last time I looked at
http://www.thehangar.co.uk/bourn/bourn.shtm
there were about a dozen or so aircraft planning on going. Might pop in on way to/from Kemble if time permits.

Sounds like a good way to kill two birds with one small rock like object.
