Dear Member,

A quick reminder of the April Tuesday Social:

TUE 14 APR – MATT DEARDEN – FLYING FROM SHANGRI-LA
We are very lucky to have extreme bush pilot, Matt Dearden, coming to the HAC next week. Some of his landing videos will have you falling off of your seats! Let’s ensure we have a full house for this talented external speaker. Cash Bar and Food available. See you at 1900 for a 1930 start.

Other Stuff:

FLEET UPDATE – RY has now returned from engineering and will remain with us until the end of the season. We therefore have a full fleet of 4 aircraft ready for your regain of currency and continued lessons – get booking.

SPRING CLEAN – Thanks to the 40 hard-working members who attended the Spring Clean a few weeks ago, we are now in excellent shape for the coming season. My sincere thanks goes to all those who attended, it is appreciated!

INITIAL FLYING SCHOLARSHIP (IFS) DAY – MON 18 MAY – Around 30 IFSs have been awarded to RAF junior personnel. We will be sending 3 aircraft and selected pilots to conduct the flying at RAF Benson which is funded by the RAF Charitable Trust. This funding comes from RIAT – please respond ASAP to Deacon’s email looking for volunteers to represent us at RIAT this year.

Regards,

Mark
