Lee Jackson Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 Hi Simon, I'd like to join the fun if there's still space. If not I'll happily cause mischief on the ground at one of the test sites. Looks like a great day out to me Lee (Reaction) Jackson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 It would be great if we could now start a list of 'Ground Crew' helpers to man the tasks at each of the waypoints. Ideally we need 14 people to help. It would be great if those people were able to arrive at Membury on the day before the event as some planning and briefings will need to be given and some driving in the morning will be needed to get to your waypoint. Camping can be arranged either at the Airfield or on my back field. Either way it will be a good evening! :-) Thanks very much in advance for your help!!!

Steve Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Looking forward to this a lot. Hope the weather is our friend. Will the ground crew put out a streamer or two for us or is part of the game to use nature's indications of wind? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatPux Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 I thought it wasn't going to be about flying skills. Never mind a streamer, I'm expecting full ILS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Strangely, my cockpit doesn't have that facility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 I have an iPhone on a leg strap, does that count as an ILS assisted cockpit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SW Hi Simon, I did see that my name had gone down on the initial flying list accidentially.....I would like to withdraw myself from this, but Im still happy to get in the air by then, so this opens up another space for anyone out there. So Ollie & I will be happy if you put us down to be part of the ground crew for you! Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 We can just keep moving it if needed I have just had a massive amount of fun buying some things for one of the ground based tasks!! I can't wait to get this set up for you guys! Your going to love it! SW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ptwizz Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 If there's still a place, I'll give it a go. This, despite having no airtime since October. If I'm going to make a fool of myself, there should be others around to benefit from the entertainment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
