Hallo All.
Just to let you know that the Port Edward microlight airfield, for security reasons is closed for the next few months. Flynn, Bernard and I have managed to get tempory hangarage at a private strip in Munster. Unfortunatly, It is not open to the public, but will let you know of any changes. We will still be maintaing the P.Ed field, so feel free to land there. Hopefully in the near future we will beable to move back to our spot.

Cheers,
Vernon.

Bad news. That Munster strip looked quite challenging.

Hi,

How can people still be "forced" off their land through intimidation?

Disgusting.

Private.
In that they are not allowing people to buzz in. Especially Two strokes, because of the residents getting upset. I am sure things will change as the circuits will be inland, where there are no houses. The owners are really helping us out, so we respect their wishes.
