Cosford 2011

Postby Nickolas » Mon May 09, 2011 11:06 pm

Sawbridgeworth Air Cadets are going to Cosford.
Well I'm going to Cosford and so is CI Brierley (Ian) and that leaves 14 spaces for cadets. :D :D :D :D

Apparently Air Cadets can get for £25 (Squadron minibus and contents!!)
Can't do it any cheaper. :ymapplause: :ymapplause: :ymapplause:

I shall be there in My Vulcan polo/ VTTS forum 'T' with a bundle of 'Blue Clad Menaces' aka Air Cadets.

Hey you can all come along and take those well deserved pops at TDC......... As he will be in uniform he can't do anything about it other than take it on the chin (Not literally XPL).

Update:
Our cadets will not be in 'Blues'. They will be in 'corporate casual' maroon T's / polo's.

I can't make Cosford anyway but I will be at Kemble on Sunday, especially as this Meatbox just might put in an appearance. ;)


"Project Update" WA591

A CAA inspector will be coming out to Kemble on Tuesday the 14th June on what is expected to be a final inspection visit, the group is confident/ hopeful that approval for flight tests will quickly follow. They still haven't got the AAN and they can't book the test pilots until they do have this document.

They are hopeful of possible first flight toward the end of next week, I'll share any more news as its passed onto me. It's been a long wait, hang on in their everyone. I have a few important events next week but have been warned that there may be very short notice of first flight and with the weather having deteriorated lately this may be a factor but hopefully not."
