As expected it's been a slow start to 2024. Floods, gales and unusable grass runways have put paid to most of our flying ambitions. A few intrepid aviators seized brief weather windows for mini scrambles to Nottingham, Conington and Middlezoy. In the meantime, I've added a legacy photo from our visit to Shawbury in 2006. A great turnout for that visit plus a Sea Harrier and a Merlin in attendance. Those were the days. In the next post you'll see an advert for the Historic Helicopters Open Days in Chard, Somerset. Not a specific FAA Sqn event but I suspect a visit of considerable interest to us all.

The Nottingham Aero Club cake. Thoroughly recommended, (if you can lift it!)
