Howya Lads, It was a great day and the glad the weather got better cos it was a bit hairy at the start. I had the use of a 44 on the day and it was a fabulous event.

Anyone got any pics to share????

What a bunch of angels you guys are!

Last year was crazy. Hope it runs smoothly this year.

Heli five o

Ya inbound was bit crazy as all the helis arrived back from the pick up points at the one time, but the day itself,and the out bound with country away first and Dublin second went very well.We will hold the Dublin pax,s at weston until all country helis are on the ground at the site this year.This will reduce the problem by fifty percent.Also more ground crew to get your pax,s off more quickly.Each year we will perfect the plan to a higher level.

Excellent. Hopefully I can take part again. Sounds brilliant.

[whatsarunway]

Vertical,

you could take one of those Aberdeen machines and the rest of us could stay in bed!

[Vertical T/O]

Good thought. I will ask for the laugh, sure why not. I would surprised if you get out of bed at all. Kinda sounds like work.

[CVR]

Ah no vertical, his car was outside the office the other day, he must have been at work, (or maybe it just broke down) no.... he must have been at work, hummmm............

Hope there is a good turn out of machines this year,

Fly Safe and Enjoy
