A share is available (not mine!) in our beautiful PA28-160 hangared at Shoreham, which has the benefit of year-round operation from the hard runway.

The aircraft is an economical tourer and has flown to Italy, Germany, Switzerland, Belgium, France, Scotland and all over the UK in recent years.

The current group members are a mixture of retired, self-employed, shift workers and a 9 to 5er so availability is excellent and spread throughout the week. Members sometimes fly together whether for a trip to the Scillys or a tea and cake run to Sandown.

Built: 1969 (imported new to the UK)
Total hours: 11600
Engine hours: 1500 (new 160hp factory rebuild 2006)
