Any more for any more? G |
add...
FNG, Cap 10b G-BXFE, with Pprune Dispatcher as nav, from White Waltham and not forgetting Flying For Fun, whose idea it was in the first place, I assume in Supercub G-WLAC, from Waltham (that right, FFF?) [ 01 February 2002: Message edited by: FNG ]</p> |
I'm in, thanks to SlipSlider <img src="smile.gif" border="0">
[ 03 February 2002: Message edited by: Evo7 ]</p> |
I will more than likely pop(ham) down heehee. .Coming in an Alfa 156 (5-seater) <img src="redface.gif" border="0"> )
Must be Friday..... |
I'm in - but unlikely to be able to get use of a club aeroplane all day at a weekend, so may have to drive (boo...) unless someone from East Anglia or East Mids area fancies a cost-sharer...
|
Are retired pilots in cars allowed to come along?
|
Anyone told Dick at Popham what we are planning? Just in case he needs to buy in more sausages! BTW if I come I will be in a PA28R Arrow 4, not a 180!
A2 :) |
Genghis, add me as a probable, Champ'ing from Goodwood, with Evo7 as nav. But .... the Aeronca Club are hosting the US Classics fly-in that weekend at Kemble, so I will be looking for the optimum way to combine the two.. .Slip.
|
I hope to make it though at this moment it will be by car from EGHI unless I am lucky to have got the licence by then.
|
add me, either in a C152 or PA28 from Plymouth-seats available if anyone wants to come. . <img src="tongue.gif" border="0">
|
Is this going to be a one-day event, or are we turning it into a weekender? How about a pyjama party, BBQ, and campout? <img src="wink.gif" border="0"> <img src="tongue.gif" border="0"> <img src="wink.gif" border="0">

Add .. Simjock from Shoreham PA28, possibly in 'loose formation'with Fuji ?
|
Add Keef, in an Arrow III from EGMC.
Anyone in the area want a lift? |
I'll hopefully be in the Chipmunk, may or may not have a spare seat.
WF. |
I agree with arrow2. Should we not check with dick first to make sure that it doesn't clash with one of his events. They have one or two microlight fly-ins during the summer. I can't do it as I'll be abroad for the next two weeks.
Airclues PS I'll be arriving in a Volvo 850 as I've just sold my aircraft (it was Popham based anyway). |
Genghis, sorry, strike me off, I'll be in the land of your namesake (Kazakhstan) then. I can do it on the weekend of 11/12 May or 15/16 June. Shame, haven't been to Popham for a while. <img src="frown.gif" border="0">
Cap'n why don't you borrow the boy's Cub? Or won't he let Dad drive :) If it does get rescheduled due to my begging or Dick being occupied on the 1st I can offer a lift to anybody who needs a lift with 50 or so miles of Luton. It's an Auster, Not a 73 so short runways are not a problem <img src="wink.gif" border="0"> Would you prefer to travel by Auster or Volvo Cap'n A? |
LowNSlow
Prefer the Auster any day, just stay away from those Cb's <img src="smile.gif" border="0"> . .I'm free 11th/12th May if Dick says no to the 1st June. When are you going to bring your Auster down to WW LowNSlow? Airclues |
Just 'cos I tried to pull a list together, doesn't mean I'm volunteering to be in charge of anything but me and my aeroplane.
Having said that, if nobody's been able to have a word with Dick by then, I can probably drop by there next weekend for a word with him. G |
I read this Popham visit in the other thread and quietly put Dick on major BBQ alert for June 1st over a week ago. He says you're all very welcome, and of course if you need arrival briefs, just ask.
Also, I've started talking to 'nearby licensed airfields' to see if they will offer any student/instructor combinations any cheap/free deal to stop off before and after Popham to allow logging time for any student taking part to be counted towards the 45. It would be a shame to come any distance on a PPL Navex and not log it. Obviously in the grand scheme of things, getting two extra landings cheap or free will not make a huge difference, but every little helps, and I guess when learning, every extra airfield helps too.

Looks as if this will be interesting.... .For your list, Genghis -. .White Shadow, from Dunks
