The February meeting will be a dinner at the Hunters Lodge. View it perhaps as a delayed Christmas party, but there will be speeches and presentations. More details will follow. Let’s hope that by then we have the green shoots of thermal recovery. Starting 7pm (probably)

If you got here by putting "sex" into a search engine you are very sad and should go away now. If however you are interested in light aircraft and live in Dorset or Somerset then this could be the page for you. We are a friendly group of aircraft owners and builders based in this area. We hold a number of fly-ins and BBQs at local farm strips throughout the summer and have evening get-togethers once a month during the winter.
