Airfield fly-ins 2013

Having received my licence from the CAA through the post yesterday, I am planning a good few flights over the summer months and want to get out there and experience different airfields.

Inspired by my home airfield (Barton / City Airport Manchester) having a fly-in day this weekend with free landings and organised activities for visiting pilots, I thought I would ask the question on PPRUNE if anyone knows of other airfields having similar events over the summer? It does not need to be North West based but if we can keep it to the UK only for now.

I am sure there will be quite a few so if you know of one then please reply with all relevant details (airfield, dates, free landings / not, link to airfield website, any other info). I will keep a log updated and repost it for everyone to share.

Airfield fly-ins 2013

East Staffordshire Flying Club are hosting their charity fly-in on Saturday 20th July at Tatenhill.

There will be 3 Aerobatic displays as well as other activities going on during the day.

Landing fees have been waived in place of a donation to the Midlands Air Ambulance, which is based at Tatenhill.

As a member of ESFC, I try to go every year, as it's a really enjoyable day.

Here's the poster with more info: http://esfc.org.uk/archive/FlyInPoster2013_v2.pdf

Hopefully see you there!
