GonTek 8th Apr 2005 10:13

No mention of anything when I went in,is it a private club ?

GonTek,

Fear not matey. When I bumped into NC a couple of weeks back I asked him about the membership fee and he told me he still had a couple of things to sort out.

JC has a list of former NAC members and I would have thought that NC or Martin B will be writing to us about membership. But I could be wrong?

PD :D

Hi flyers,
hope you are all keeping well.

Mu Beta
good to see you tried doing something to raise funds for the air ambulance.

"not enough people to make it viable! ---- Thats Life!!!"

I think in this case it probably means - thats a life lost!!

Are you by any chance thinking of trying again?

regards

Hope2

Rumour: The new "cellar boy" - Kilo Lima?



GonTek - cheers for kind words matey.

GonTek 11th Apr 2005 09:39

PD : only joking, there was only Linda in at the time and she took more than 50 off of me:ugh:


I'm off 5 days so if you fancy a jolly you know where I am (thurs onwards)

Bar looks good !!!!!:cool:

Hi
I hope you all do not mind me calling in again?

been some interesting banter between my previouse two posts.
It looks like things are picking up for you all at last. so much so that raiders from Scotland are popping down to seek our local sheep! (just jokeing)

Topjet
thanks for posting the wings site up.
hope you can negotiate a lifetime free membership for former NAC members!!!!!

Gon Tec
is a "JOLLY" pilot speak for getting a mile high or just an abrevieation for getting jolly drunk?

best wishes
Hope2

Do you know who I am 11th Apr 2005 20:21

Newcastle Aero Club
 
It is great to see the club up and running again and I know that flying is not exactly cheap but having done some flights of about 2 - 3 hours and getting the bill I have no option but go for a share in an aircraft. Do you think that they should do a deal if you are really using the aircraft.

Has anyone had any nasties with SE especially with a spinning HI and questionable compass?

TOPJET973K 11th Apr 2005 22:31

Northumbria Flying School
 
DYKWIA

Good point although other organisations do charge up to 3 hours per day for no flying! Not sure if NC would be open to such a deal for non flying time?

SE - never have and never will fly that from the postings I have read!

Hope2 - I hope you are coming along to the grand opening?

Flight planning and performance
 
Sorry to be cheeky but....

I don't suppose anyone has a copy of the PPL confuser containing flight planning and performance that i could borrow for a few weeks?

If you could Private Message me i would be very grateful!

Thanks

Aerosmithy

GonTek 12th Apr 2005 09:54

Aero :chk pm.

Hope 2 : Nice to see you are still with us,the medication must be working your post is readable. (only joking my friend do you expect anything else from us !)
A jolly is nothing more than a fly about. (SE would not make a mile high )


Re: SE I had a flight in it and agree some things are "Questionable" but I must say in defence that this aircraft is not one of the fleet of NFS and any repairs will have been overseen by an LAE and there are allowable items that may not work, not grounding the aircraft. I certainly would not fly it again.
As stated in this thread previously another of the fleet should be back on line shortly and the item in question will be returned to its rightfull owner:yuk:

Hope 2 fly 14th Apr 2005 19:59

NAC
 
Hi all,

I think NAC is famouse now its gone.

It got a mention in the new thread "Pprune Flyin" as a proposed / suggested destination. If it gets agreed who acts as host/hostess? and where will the Flyin PPrunes be entertained?

Topjet
thanks for the invite but I do not think i can attend the Wings opening do.
It looks like a private club for employees, accadamy customers & ex NAC members so I will not qualify.
I may also be away on a top secret Hedge Hog Hunting Rescue Raid with a bit of luck.

cheers

Hope 2 fly 17th Apr 2005 20:31

Hi flyers,

I guese you are all too busy flying now to chat on here?

gon tec: No problem - thanks for the info.
Did you manage to get it up for a "jolly"?
through the rain & snow on thurs & friday but at least weather was ok sat and sun for your free weak end.

hope we get plenty more now the spring is here eh!

GonTek 18th Apr 2005 08:18

Hope 2 fly :

Unfotunately not my friend, outside forces (she ) intervened.

There is still time though !!!!



Wake the rest of you, are you all asleep ????

You can join through wings web site
30 th is opening date so I am informed

Regards all

GonTek 29th Apr 2005 20:06

Congrats on your solo Mr Happyeater !!!


It's one hell of an achievement.

Happyeater 30th Apr 2005 20:54

Thanks GonTec, I appreciate it.

Just back in from the Wings opening night and the place looks really good. It was packed and some familiar faces were in attendance too.

The 'Club' is up and running.

GonTek 1st May 2005 10:31

Anytime H.E.


The rest that is on the menu for you is just as much fun, the exams are a P.I.T.A.

Enjoy.

ps Enjoyed reading your account of lessons, Can you understand Greek now ? (no offence Malaka)



Regards All

Happyeater 2nd May 2005 09:52

Im fluent in double dutch, my Greek ain't too good though.

You're right about the exams though P.I.T.A. is a very accurate description. Trying to find the time to study with 3 kids and a business is a little difficult. I've never been a study type person.

Just have to get it done, although I have found it really interesting in the main.

GonTek 2nd May 2005 10:19

I know what you are going through, I had GFT booked and 3 to do
luckily managed 3 in a week.


You can do it !!!

I am also bi-lingual English/Krappe as I am sure others will agree
on the sidelines reading this (No reply reqd or expected TJ).


New Bar does look the hounds hydraulics !!!


Regards each and every.


Aero : have not forgotten u

andyhelo 11th May 2005 15:42
