      As a well known 80's artist once said, "if your names not down, your not coming in"  
      If you have not been to this one before, I am sure that all who have will agree that it's not one to be missed! 
      The location of the take off field is just perfect for following the tides that will be passing though over the weekend. 
      We will have the bar team back to take care of drinks. 
      For food, we can cater for ALL. (a vegan menu) and some amazing sounding additions to the norm (as well as the norm of course)  
      Camping for Tents, caravans and motorhomes is FREE. 
      Limited family / holiday accommodation is available walking distance from the flying field. (ideal for those who would like a bit of luxury) Please contact Kathy Turner on 07970 771 039 for information, availability and pricing.
      As always, FULL MEMBERS ENTRY IS FREE.
      Non Paid members, £30 Please pay on arrival. If you are not a full member please consider joining before hand (link below to VIP membership). For £30 per year you can come to all 3 events FOC! , triple the fun!!

      This year we have chosen Cheltenham Spa as our location for the RDA, PMC main summer event. It honestly is an amazing venue!
      Of course there will be Fireworks, Music, A selection of food vendors, 24-hour fire pit, and 24-hour licensed security. (more to come ) 
      What's this RDA thing???
      This year, the PMC has chosen to support the RDA (Riding for Disabled) which is a super cool national charity who provide therapy through horse contact. RDA research shows that riders experience significant positive change in their capacities for communication, confidence, enjoyment, relating, physical improvement and learning horsemanship.
       
       
      Because this event is a Charity event, please note the slightly different pricing structure below. 
      Full PMC members £10 in the charity pot (pretty please)
      Not a full PMC member and flying? £30 (or click > and join as a full member before the event for £30 and enjoy 3 fly-ins a year FOC!)  
      Non Flying guest, partner £25
      Children under 16 £0
      Tandem flights will be available (please PM well in advance if your keen) 
      There will be Fireworks! Big ones, it may or may not work as planned but either way, they will be big and they will go off ! lol

      Food, we have: Vegetarian and meat wraps van, pizza van, and a burger van. :
      Of course there will be a 'heated' bar, and the fire pit (you do NOT need to bring logs this time!! )  
      As always we will have the impossible to replicate, amazing PMC 'vibe' which is created by the awesome people that attend!  To quote the very first PMC t-shirt, It's the Pilots that make the Party!  (free pint for anyone that turns up that still has one of these!!) lol
      More info to follow, 200 pilots max so please ensure you RSVP (log in and use the green button at the top of the page that says GOING )
      As always, we hope to see you there!!!   PM or post a message if you have any questions.
