Penguina 8th Sep 2003 20:52

OK, I've now got a 'plane booked for FFF, smurph and me that weekend!

Whirly, if you're flying in, maybe you and smurph should get in touch about that trial lesson?

Hoping the weather's OK!

Penguina :D

Saab Dastard 9th Sep 2003 04:07

Penguina,

Your arrival time will be scrupulously noted and points deducted for each minute early / late against your ETA! :p

Your endurance will be also be (sorely) tested in the bar! ;)

Cheers

re: arrival time - speak to my faithful navigator FFF

re: endurance test - speak to me (if you're capable!); do I get my 75 litres free fuel?

:p

WelshFlyer 9th Sep 2003 23:03

no free fule i'm affraid - but free landing fees. The bar at the airport is stocked and they have a nice function room. I'm sorting it all out.

see you there.

Sorry Welshflyer, I wasn't being cheeky there!

Was referring to Penguina Fuel (normally nice ale!) in my reply to Saab Dastard as opposed to C172 Fuel, but free ladning fees won't be turned down!

Looking forward to it (and the miraculous weather we're going to have of course!).

:)

WelshFlyer 10th Sep 2003 03:12

I know, I was using that Welsh trick of dry humor:)

But there should be a considerable amount of "Penguina Fuel" there. (but if you can manage 70 litres, my hat's off to you - hey go for it!:))

I can't make it; tied up on the Saturday, gotta go to London on the Sunday. :{ :{ :{

Shaggy Sheep Driver 18th Sep 2003 22:06

Just popped into Barton to check our booking diary. Chippy's booked up on 11th, but free all day on 12th - so I've nabbed it!

Weather and stuff permitting, I'll be there (maybe with another group member) on the Sunday, probably arriving around mid morning.

Cheers

Just booked SR for the weekend.

Is Keef going sort out the weather for us?

Shaggy Sheep Driver 22nd Sep 2003 04:38

As Keef himself will tell you, he's in sales, not managment ;~)

Flyin'Dutch' 25th Sep 2003 21:12

Is there a page on 'The Hangar' to note one's interest?

FD

Keef 25th Sep 2003 21:41

Weather - I'll be in the wilds of rural Hungary, so the folks over there can expect "tempest storm and wind" and maybe earthquake too - standard Keef holiday weather (the boss loves to tease).

Whether that weather will spread as far as North Wales, I can't tell. Last time I flew from C'fon, it was 100nm vis, CAVOK, and fabulous.

Is CAE back in operation, or is it still TST?

The Hangar Booking Site

I just set up a page for those who want to declare their intent - at http://www.thehangar.co.uk/flyin/main.php?find=70

WelshFlyer 26th Sep 2003 01:54

Thanks for that Keef. Just confirmed; on the saturday night scocial, I have persueded a couple of my musician friends to come and play while we eat our "buffet" before the bash-proper.

In Altissimus 30th Sep 2003 22:16

I'm feeling a bit lonely on the Hangar page at the moment :{

Anyone else really up for this?

knobbygb 30th Sep 2003 22:33

Details added - problem is - I'm arriving by car! Still, I have 3 spare seats if anyone needs a lift from the Manchester/Liverpool/Chester/N.Wales coast sort of area.

dublinpilot 30th Sep 2003 22:49

Haveing a meeting this evening with a fellow pilot. We are going to fly over from Dublin together, and possibly with two non-flying paxs as well.

Will complete details page, when we've firmed up our plan a bit!

BRL 30th Sep 2003 22:53

I might not be able to make this one now. The reason I was going up that way was to pick up a load of drum equipment but these will not be ready for a few weeks more now. :{ :{

I don't know what to do now as its a bit too far from down here on the coast. :(

FlyingForFun 1st Oct 2003 00:18

I'm sure I'll be there. Not entirely sure how, I may not be navigating for Penguina after all, but I'm sure I'll be there.
