North Hill Airfield is still waiting for the rain to stop, so that the waterlogged pitch can drain, (100mm since 1st March on top of the 224mm in February!!) but in the meantime, jobs, lectures and the Simulator are keeping the Members busy. The Gator now has 4 new mirrors, the EuroFox was polished and the wifi extender was refitted on the tug hangar after the cladding work. Potential new member Chris enjoyed some time in the Simulator with Steve Westlake.
Mike Benson RSO GASCo (Simon Leeson) |
This evening we welcomed Mike Benson - volunteer Regional Safety Officer from GASCo who provided a GASCo Safety evening presentation. Many thanks to Mike for an entertaining evening and to Pooleys and Haywards for sponsoring the event.
A good crowd gathered for the safety presentation (Simon Leeson) |
Members very nearly filled the Clubroom despite the foggy night for driving and a certain rugby match on TV. The safety messages were well-presented interspersed with audience participation 'clickers'. Pooleys raffle prizes were won by James Hood, Paul Summers, Stuart Procter and Dave Perriam.
Evening supper (Simon Leeson) |
Following the talk, a good number stayed on for the dinner from Julie and Vicky. - J&P
