RY and GA have significantly different avionics fits so Steve T has kindly developed a short list of the differences to help pilots manage flying both aircraft. A copy of the list is at the link and also at the front of RY’s Document Folder and the POH in the ac.
There are now copies of the Outbrief and Inbrief in each ac document folder for use when you landaway
The button below will link to an IER page that has on it a video showing how to use the new 100 litre extinguisher and a brief on the Fire Buggy and a slide presentation of basic Fire Training. All flying Club members should be familiar with this material.
Astral Aviation Consulting is contracted by the CAA to deliver the Safety Awareness campaign to the General Aviation community on their behalf. As part of this work, we host free online GA Safety Workshops on topics such as RT, PFLs, weather, human factors and learning to fly.
Originally focused on providing expert advice to UK General Aviation, the company has since expanded to support business and commercial aviation clients both in the UK and internationally. Their team includes current and former military pilots, as well as commercial and general aviation pilots, examiners, and instructors—collectively bringing over 30,000 flying hours across a wide variety of aircraft.

A 90litre fire extinguisher is fitted to the Fire Buggy and stand alone examples are located on the fuelling apron. These are shortly to be replaced by a new 100 litre model.
A training session has been arranged by the Station for Saturday 29th March starting at 0900 at the airfield and all HAC members who are available are strongly urged to attend. Training is likely to last about one hour.
Remember, training in the use of the airfield fire equipment is good airmanship and you should be confident in its use; it might be the key factor in your saving a fellow club member in the event of an on-airfield accident, or in their saving you!
No advance booking required. Just turn up on the day. I will take stock of the number of members who do not attend and see if we need to make additional training available in due course, but please make every effort to attend on 29th.
