BRL,

Don't you think you should make this thread a "sticky"?

Whirly (presently on a ship somewhere North of the Arctic Circle)

LowNSlow 15th May 2003 19:25

Got my leave schedule changed which means I can go to Sherburn :ok: :ok:

So the offer of a seat from the St. Albans / Stevenage / Luton / Hitchin area is back on. Preferably somebody who's not more than 15 stone cos I'll need a full tank for the trip and my chunkiness will make up the difference (ask crossedconrols) :p

BRL 15th May 2003 20:57

Whirly what are you doing on a ship in the artic circle..???? :ooh:

LowNSlow Thats great news, hope to see you there then. :)

Northern Highflyer 15th May 2003 21:10

What time are people planning to arrive ?

Looking forward to meeting some fellow ppruners :D

BRL 15th May 2003 21:14

Northern Highflyer If you look at this page here it will tell you roughly who is going and ETA's. :)

A_Pommie 17th May 2003 16:46

Windy Millitant and I will endevour to bring our Auster along.

Ok, aircraft is booked, my name is on the list. I've bought a North of England chart :eek: Now we just need good weather, and I have to hope my aircraft has had its 50-hour check by then (which I'm sure it will have).

Seems like I have a spare seat going from White Waltham. Happy to pick someone up on the way if necessary.

Hey FFF - would you like to write my posts for me? :) :)

Aircraft is booked, I've bought the map, theres a spare seat from North Weald. eveepee is navigating which means we'll see you on sunday.

(Ducks to avoid incoming handbag)

MikeSamuel 20th May 2003 05:47

FFF, are you planning on staying the night? Would like your spare seat if possible, have to compare Europa to Vans (when it is built!!!)

Drop me a line,

Regards,

Mike

Just to repeat Kolibear & FFF - new Northern area map has been ordered from a certain pilot shop in Fairoaks / Shoreham, and I'm also treating myself to a new Pooleys in honour of the occasion (the 1996 one I currently have that used to be amended by me in response to the inserts in GASIL is looking a bit pen stricken now!).

Looks like I'll have to come in a C172 as I haven't even started converting to the C182RG yet (due to insurance delays). I'll certainly find my way as Mrs CB (my navigational adviser) will be there to keep me on track!!

FlyingForFun 20th May 2003 17:33

Mike - sorry, can't stay overnight as someone else has booked the aircraft for the next day. Quite unusual to see it booked that far in advance, so it must be something special that he wants it for - so very unlikely he'd re-schedule for me.

eveepee 20th May 2003 19:38

Aw..come on Kolibear, I haven't got us lost ..yet... Just make sure we've plenty of fuel. :D

PS (It's only the magpies that need to duck!)

MikeSamuel 20th May 2003 21:45

OK FFF, just wondered about the staying over. I'm not too bothered but if the offer of the lift is still there would you be able to swoop in to Wellesbourne and pick me up?
After £41 and £17 landing fees at Coventry for my lifts there and back to Duxford I think it might be a more sensible option!!!
Cheers,

Mike

Northern Highflyer 21st May 2003 19:03

Thanks for that BRL. :ok:

FlyingForFun 21st May 2003 19:14

MikeS - I'm pretty sure I can manage that. Will talk to you about details nearer the time.

Bought my new Northern map today, so definately coming now!!

Saab Dastard 27th May 2003 04:58

Sadly it looks as if November Whiskey will not be serviceable :( :{

Looks as if I won't be able to make it, unless anyone needs a navigator from Fairoaks / Blackbushe / White Waltham / Denham, of course - in which case I will offer my services!

After buying the northern half mill and all :rolleyes:

Cheers

BlueRobin 29th May 2003 19:06

Whirlybird -> Not sure if I can make it.

Currently undergoing some further tail wheel tuition, whch is proving difficult to get right and hence safe.

BRL 29th May 2003 19:26

Now then. Some people have dropped out or disappeared completely which means some people are in need of a lift. I urge you all who are going to put your name on the list HERE
Many thanks..... :)

Kolibear 29th May 2003 19:54

Oh good. I see Dale Winton will be joining us. It was a shame that George Bush failed to make Duxford.

I stil have a spare seat if anyone is interested from Stapleford and can pick up from Bourn or Fenland.
