A BIG thank you to all those who made the effort to attend, both aviators and non aviators.

We had 22 entrants for the Spot Landing competition on Thursday and fun was had by all.

This morning 7 entrants battled the strong winds and enjoyed the Fun Navigation Rally.

And yes Anton, it was great to meet you and we look forward to seeing some of your photos.

Cheers,
