geoffw Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 JUST !!! to let you all know Jamaica inn on the bobmin moors will allow pmc pilots to land right next to the Jamaica inn one of the most famous pubs In the world ,they have a heli-pad for those of you with a helicopter , I have looked on google maps the field slopes alittle but looks perfect .Katie Smith the manager said pmc club members are more than welcome to fly-in and enjoy real Cornish ales,and brillant food ,Can have your breakfast there if you like , check it out, only about 8/9 miles from pmc take off field . So fit this in to your plans to the coast and stop off at one of the most famous old coaching houses in the world .bloody hell Jamaica ale yes Jamaica real ale, steady though chaps, no bussing or low flying over the pub please.

geoffw Posted September 14, 2019 Author Share Posted September 14, 2019 That's it. Hi Just to let you all know ,,Jamaica inn, don't miss it ,, Also you can now fly to The Engine House at Compton park Callington , about 4/5 miles from pmc fly-in situated 6 miles from the lovely tamar valley sould be some brillant flying. "check it out" again great food with brillant service, you" CANNOT" land on the campsite or car park. Your landing field is right next door John and sue who owns the field/farm are going to cut the field in the next few days again looks brilliant place for a flying visit. Got to say Cornish people are so nice and helpful, just a few phone calls and all sorted. just trying to sort out a petrol station now. There's one on the A38 landing field next door just waiting for confirmation from land owner. Plus a restaurant.,,,,,!!!! Ps remember don't eat to much you have to take off later.

Guest Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 Just curious what you guys use to communicate with each other while flying. I always fly on my own so dont have anything but would be great to be able to communicate with others on this fly in. Let me know what you use.
