Neilzy Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 (edited) Hi everyone quite a few people have asked about changing date of our weekend as it clashes with the National's so whats the general opinion, Im thinking making it the following weekend i know it prob clashes with another function somewhere else but we could go on forever. So please let me know your thoughts its such a great site and we want to show as many people as we can and really want our fly in to be a good great one any questions or suggestions please feel free to contact me.

timm9227 Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 Personally I'd rather be flying myself than watching other poeple flying around poles, so I say leave it as it is 10/11/12 June. Could you not have another one later in the year if it's a success. Besides I've had to do alot of grovelling to be allowed out that weekend and I'm away the weekend after. I think another vote is looming but maybe with fewer options than the last one and not all the same Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddieboyfly Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 Im thinking you should go for the weekend after the Nats as its such a big draw for the paramotoring fraternity. Theres a lot of Essex boys whom im sure would go. Should be a good turn out especially if we keep this spot on weather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neilzy Posted April 20, 2011 Author Share Posted April 20, 2011 Dear Lord how hard is this turning out to be, me finally getting up to fly was the easy bit, organising a fly in well F#*k me thats the hard bit. The 17th clashes with a shoot on our field so have to change it to following week after 24th June 2011... im afraid now if it clashes with anything we gonna just have too. So iv'e changed the date on the dreaded poll and lets see what we get.............. Sorry with all the messing about but i don't really think flying around with a load of nutters shouting PULL and shouting 12bore is that good a idea.

clivefreeman Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 Neil perhaps you should charge at least a fiver and then we can put it in an envelope and give it to Paul as a drink. I know he does not want anything but its very good of him to do this for us and at least he can put some petrol in his mower, with our money.

simon101 Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 Good idea about sorting Paul out Clive, he has been pretty damn good to us this year...putting up with all that damage to his field from prop strikes and jumpers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilzy Posted April 24, 2011 Author Share Posted April 24, 2011 I agree that we should do something for Paul, but rather than make a charge i think it would be better just to have a tin maybe and let everyone chuck what they want in. Im sure most will drop something in and i reckon it just a better way to do it. Neilzy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timm9227 Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 Will be more than happy to make a contibution to the fly in , but I also think you deserve a cut for organising it. Well done and lets hope the weathers on our side. Thanks Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilzy Posted April 24, 2011 Author Share Posted April 24, 2011 Thanks for the thought Im more than happy to do it the more flyers and families that turn up will be more than enough for me, my family are camping with over with me even though we only live 30mins away, so anyone want to bring family etc you are more than welcome i just so want to see this be a great weekend for all........ Simon may even invite vicar from local church as he buzzes him quite regulary get him over for a Sunday morn sermon but have to draw the line at him inviting the sheep for an overnight stay sorry Si. But i not want anything for organising the Fly-in many thanks for the thought again. Neilzy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
