Just a reminder and update re the Panorama Oktoberfest Fly In and Open Day on the 15th — All welcome!
The Harvard Club will have a plane there all day, offering flips — same spot as last year.
Its the Rugby WC semi-finals at 10am on the 15th -- so we will also have a TV on for that.
Food and drink available all day (and night).
There has been some interest re sleeping over at the field. Please let me know if this is likely, so I can arrange some showers.
Looking forward to seeing everyone.
Thanks, Helga

Looking forward to this one! Are there any special eventsbeing arranged or is it just a fly in and visit?

Hi All
below a link to avcom for more info.
There will not be ATC so use unmanned procedures
PM me if you need more info.
The plan is for a whole day event so 3 meals will be catered for.
Lots of music and some liquid refreshment as well.

Maybe it was an Avcom event. No time for the low life 'currie munchers (samoosas)' with 'checkers packet "pilots" who are actually the "road taxis" of the sky'.Strange...... Where were the gyros. They did attend!! ???!!
Or else perhaps the Rhino okes had there camaras on the wrong frequency.
