Flyer Forum Code of Conduct

At its best, the Flyer Forum continues to be a valuable resource for the General Aviation community

It is a place where flyers of all experience levels can meet to discuss and exchange up-to-date undistorted...

If you are planning an event, be it a small lunchtime meal or a huge fly-in then why not tell us about it so we can include it in our web listing?

Thanks

When people write the title of their fly-ins, please can they add a date too? It makes it so much easier to look down the list to see what's on that particular weekend, rather than having to open them all.

Guernsey Aero Club are pleased to announce the date for their popular Air Rally.

In order to give ourselves the best possible chance of seeing a removal of the restrictions associated with COVID-19, we have selected the September weekend of the 10...

Well with a fair wind we hope to be able to run the fly in this year. Bring your own sausage whatever if you want to throw it on the BBQ. Tea, coffee, water provided. Not sure if any of us will get abroad this year, so please support this and any...

Thanks Dave W for the lift last year. I’ll be taking the Maule this year :thumright:. Who’s going ? Could this be another well-attended ‘Lunkosh’ event ?

The Vale of York Strut will be hosting a 2 day fly in at Rufforth East to celebrate all things aviation. If you sit in it, on it, under it, you are welcome.

Let’s hope for a better 2021. I’ll be flying down if the show’s on.

Still Sat/Sun only, and now 1200-1500. Fly-ins welcome, but I've no idea yet of the state (mowedness, sogginess) of Taxiway R, so it might be prudent to ask when you 'phone for PPR :? We're in Tier 2 (unsurprisingly).

Hope to see some Forumites...

Anyone participating?

As we haven't eaten out since March we shall be dressing up in finest ballgown / DJ and enjoying the evening via YouTube.
We have even sent for the dinner party box to add to the atmosphere.

S'pose I'll have to make beef...

.. :) , but with restrictions. Obviously, fly-ins (welcome) also depend on Staverton rules, which I believe still include PPR for non-based arrivals. Also, Twy R to the Museum is off 09/27, which is still, I believe, the only one available....

Only just found out about this but by luck the household "To do" list is low and Brownie Points store quite full. :thumright:

Forecast looks reasonable and I'd like to see the prototype Beagle Pup now it has been painted.

Apparently still planned to be live with live (paying!) audiences. No directly aeronautical topics apparent in programme, nor even military history with aviation aspects:

.. but a couple of speakers might interest those who took part in some of...

Surprised not to see reference on these pages to the Easter airfield fly-in taking place the weekend of 4-6 September.

Toying with the idea of flying up for it on the Saturday, even if not to stay in a tent...

A proposal for the usual pre-Christmas drinks and meal in central London. It will probably take the usual format of drinks at De Hems followed by a meal at Gerrard's Corner , China Town.
