Ahhh. I would rather like to answer that question a bit later. When I see how many wannabes need a place. Each room is limited to 25 seats.
However, I assume you are thinking of attending the bash as well, in which case your partner can come to hotel with you and would able to attend the Test Pilots lecture in the afternoon. But........if there is a spare place within a week or so of the day I will be happy to let you that. In the meantime please feel free to book your place as per page one.
Fair enough?

What it's all about:
The link below is a thread that I started after the seminars last Christmas. If you are unsure about what goes on there then I suggest reading this thread and scrolling down to some of the posts by G-SXTY, Sick Squid and Redsnail, to name but a few. I'm sure it will give you an idea of what goes on there!

I am surprised that so few people have responded to the Seminars - so far!
Perhaps it was because it was a "sticky" - and literally got stuck at the top of the page. I have changed that now so I hope many more of you will attend to get a feel for the current state in the industry. And to hear a 90 minute lecture from one of the acclaimed test pilots, John Farley, and from an active test pilot at Boscombe Down, Dave Southwood. See page ONE of this thread.
I am sure the numbers will swell but I suggest 'you' book your place now.
Go on, you know it makes sense

I waited to give all the new wannabes a chance to go to the seminars. But it seems they are not too keen. So please count me in. My cheque will be in the post tomorrow.

As I had attended last year I was waiting for others to fill your places. But as GAF4139 says, it doesn't appear to be happening, so cheque in the post. Please mark me down for a place.
Come on wannabes - this is a cracking day, you really will miss out if you don't come along.

IFR same applies for me, did them last year but would like to attend again.
One problem is I am due to start a new job on the 09/09/02 so will have to hold back for this and the bash booking until I know I can definitely get a day off.
Otherwise waiting for pay day to book the bash

Hey scroggsy,
I am sure you can , you can also attend too.
You can relax, I probably won't be at the seminars. Might turn up to the Bash though and be a menace.

Don't know IFR, land of disorganisation.
Apparently S doesn't do Friday the 13th. No doubt all the regulars will be there in the end
Good time to go b.t.t.t
And sign up you miserable lot, you receive top lectures, followed by a top organised party, with top food.
Now you can't go wrong with that.

Still 31 places available for the seminars. 19 regulars already booked their places.
These seminars are specifically for our wannabes and not one who has attended before will tell you it is a waste of time and so little money - you get the latest gen on the state of the industry too. However, anyone is welcome - even if you have been to a seminar before
And don't forget the PPRuNe Fund will be putting in £250 to offset some of the cost which, for the first time, includes lunch.
And the bonus is a lecture from two Test Pilots, who are also avid PPRuNer's. I wouldn't miss that for the world I can tell you.
Oh! And don't forget you can come to the GatBash too - just check-out the PPRuNe Bashes forum for the details on the Christmas Gatbash.

There's lunch as well? I'm definitely coming now.
And just a thought - how about a seminar on bash decorum? I could think of a few people who'd be ideal to give that talk . . .

Missed the first seminar & bash, went to the second seminar but missed the bash.
This time I can't miss neither the seminar nor the bash!
I will confirm later on as at the moment I have no idea if I am going to be around at that time.
Hope to see you all there again!
