PPRuNe Fly-In, Compton Abbas, Sunday May 29th.
 

Ok, decision time. Does the location and date look ok to you?

Think so... Genghis, shall we go together?

I'm free, why not.

G

Oooooo, a new airfield in my f/w logbook. Been there - but by helicopter.

Well Whirly, I choose the Sunday so that you could make it!

Hope you can get down there. :)

It clashes with the Flyer student day out at Duxford, but I've already been there 3 times so I will probably drive in...Unless anyone's making the short hop from Kemble or around the Bristol area. ;)

M

BRL,
If there's decent weather all the way from the Shropshire plains to...wherever Compton Abbas is, I'll make it. :ok:

Great!

I can make it in my new toy......:cool:

Go on Monocock - give us a clue ?

I've been promised that Annie will be getting the wind under her wings by this weekend so count me in.

Check it out!!!

Looking forwards to meeting you LnS:ok:

Trouble is, I wouldn't be surprised if it was a flying car :ok: :rolleyes: :p


Is yellow the clue we need Mono?

flying car ???
 

Hi monocock

interesting machine!

I assume it was not the first of april when you posted your pic.?

If it is a new roadable aircraft could you please post more details so i can have a more detailed look.

cheers

Where's the tax disk? ;)

Good idea for a fly-in, never actually managed to get to a pprune one before. Will try to get there first (to make sure I meet absolutely everyone, obviously, not just in case I succeed in embarrassing myself somehow :O ).

Time to push this back to the top I think.

I hope to be there, the 'plane's booked, and I look forward to seeing you all.

Brooklands

Of course as its bank holiday weekend the weather wil be :yuk:

Anyone going up from Shoreham/Redhill/Chichester need a passenger.....?

Thrasher booked and I'm not working...

Just to make it a bit more official!

Shame, shame. I am out of the country that weekend.

QDM

Anyone want a lift from Sleap? In a C150, not a helicopter. Preferably someone who can read a map, so that I can look at the view and not have to do any work. :)

Ah, maybe I could bring my New Toy™ along.

Was planning a slow trip up to Scotland, but that's been scuppered. I suppose this could the start of a westward week instead.

Ah no! Just realised I'm going to be in Geneva! :( :( :(

planning a run in from kemble if anthing happening or worth seeing ? - whats the low down ? barbecue ? beer ? women ?

Well If I am not working then I think I may just pop down. Not been to Compton for years, did pass it a few days ago though on a photo shoot. Always a nice field to spend a sunny afternoon sat watching the world go by.

I can't make it, someone else has booked the aircraft for that day :{

Give me their numberplate and I'll make sure they're stopped at the gate. :E

Alternate
 

For those who, like myself, are unable to make the Sunday due to other commitments a small group of us are having a fly-in to Dunkeswell on the Bank Holiday Monday the 30th May.

Anybody is welcome to join us, arriving in time for lunch. :)

Hope to be there, either in a Falke or Piper Cub (both of which are yellow).

Bletchleytugie

Not only, but also...
 

Aiming to do this and then Dunkeswell the next day. At least that way I should be able to make to to Dunkeswell in good time:rolleyes:

Must find out about accommodation near Compton.

Maybe Madonna can help out? ;)

bek ? bek ? bek ? is that short for Rebecca ? THE Rebecca I have heard so much about ?:cool:

Going to miss it for the stupidest of reasons. This dim twit only let his medical expire on the 21st and can't get a renewal (assuming I pass :uhoh: ) until the 30th! Yup that's right, I found a wonderful AME who is prepared to work on a Bank Holiday!!

Theres a guy that we send everyone to called Dr Gray who lives Compton side of Salisbury who can usually do medicals at short notice....
call him on 01722 714382
