Apologies for the lack of articles since the July Hangar Talk. The problem is there has not been much to write about due to the winter weather putting a damper (literally) on activities at the field.

Without sounding alarmist, we need to be mindful of the conditions and ensure that any activity eliminates any risk of fire - the ground is tinder dry and even a small fire would escalate very quickly. Club Day - February 1 I was unable to attend ... Read More
