Dennis
Thank you for taking the time to make what I believe was the longest journey of the evening to get there (perhaps with the exception of mine but I had an excuse, I was off on hols the next day).
We have discussed the idea of throwing hats in the ring before and I think its a great idea with a smaller group size. We almost always end up overrunning as it is and need to find more time for questions and answers at the end of the evening.
I get emails from people who have attended Phils evenings at Wycome and my travelling roadshow, there are some who prefer the kind of evening Phil puts on and some who prefer mine, as long as we are getting some messages across to the pilots out there I don't think it matters how we do it.
I am loathe to reduce the numbers at these events if there is demand we will try and satisfy it, but that does not mean I do not listen to you and others about how we do things.
I think perhaps at one or two in the future we will make time for you to discuss some of your gotchas and the ways out of them you have found, there are always people who ask me on the evening is that 'The Dennis Kenyon' and they I am sure would love to learn from your experience.

Winchester Safety Evening
I have been approached by a local pilot to see if I would put on a safety evening at premises in Winchester.
If there is a demand I have said why not.
We are looking most probably at the 11th of January 2010 as I have a meeting at Farnborough on the 12th and can tie up travelling with this.
I am thinking that gives us a reasonable catchment area of those located on the South Coast, from say Goodwood, Southampton, Bournemouth, Very West London and maybe even as far W as Yeovilton out towards Thruxton.
Do we have any takers ?

As long as Terry and Arthur aren't there - they always get into some financial predicament where Terry ends up skint and Arthur smelling of roses - not a suitable environment for something as serious as a Safety Evening me thinks!
and then there's the singing along with the theme tune - don't get me started

Winchester Safety Evening
11th January 2010 at 1900hrs in the Winchester area is now conifirmed.
I will pop a registration link on the helicopter safety site in the next day or two.
We have a venue in mind, but need to see how much interest there is, in case we are oversubscribed so more details will follow on that shortly.
Splot any chance of stickying this until the day ?

I am interested in doing them anywhere, its just a logisitical problem sometimes of getting me, the kit and the guys who help out, to the venue and overnighting them there, which is why Redhill is normally easy to do.
I am talking to some people at the moment who I hope will be helping out financially.

Anyone who is coming please register or re-register if necessary, as some of you will have heard me moaning about the demise of my Laptop Hard Disk in January the most up to date list was on it, and was one of the few things that I didn't get back.
Hope to see you there.

I've sent out joining instructions / directions for Wednesday; in case they don't get through they can be found on the Helicopter Safety Website.
We have about 30 people registered for Wednesday, hopefully we'll have another good night.

Thankyou.
Thankyou Gary for your efforts on Wednesday night at Winchester.
I enjoyed the evening and picked up some helpful points. Ian (Elite) thankyou also.
Not the easiest place to find but a lovely venue and a great spread thanks to Vanguard Helicopters. At least I know where I am going now if there is one there again.
Never been to one before but I thought it was a good turn out and look forward to another down this way in the future.
Thanks once again to Gary and team and Vanguard Helicopters.

Looking to sort a North West safety evening and the 14th September is looking favourite at the moment.
Probably also a Wycombe evening while I am up there most of the summer.
Any takers ?
