Had a great time at Hullavington last weekend.

I already arrived saturday-morning in G-OPNH (Glasair) from Keiheuvel EBKH.

Saturday still some showers, but some very interesting visitors (including the recently restored G-BRIK from Peter Bentley).

It was very nice to see two more Nippers arrive on Sunday, pity we had to depart around noon because we still planned a stop at the Stampe fly-in in Antwerp.

It was great meeting some of you guys, hope to be there again some time flying OO-WBR...

Willem
Yes, can I endorse Neils comments about the exam. Best of luck.
For your records, G-ASXI is now no longer based at Old Sarum.
I am now based at New Barn Farm, which is a scary little strip that sits
right in between high trees and we have about 8 or 9 aircraft there
It is about 6 miles due east of Stockbridge in Hampshire,
Once again all the best
Kind regards, Pat ASXI Smile

Thanks guys..

Hope you have fun at North Weald, the organisers told me that 60% of the UK Nipper fleet booked in and that one Nipper that is under restoration will be on display..


I really regret not being able to come over..

Hello All,
I AM going to the fly-in at North Weald this weekend, but by car. NIPR is nearly done but not quite.
I will be driving down from Inverness on Friday and arriving later that evening.
I will be staying in the travelodge nearby, so if anyone wants a beer....
Otherwise I will be at the show on Saturday, and for a little while on Sunday before driving to Farnborough for
an interview! Busy weekend.
Really hoping to meet many of you and seeing your Nippers. Have camera, and prepared to use it!
My mobile is 07966 375960.
Give me a bell if you are around over the weekend.
Cheers.

Paul
G-NIPR.
