skippydiesel Posted 20 hours ago Posted 20 hours ago Crookwell Aerodrome!Sunday 15 November "Hi everyone, We’ve locked in a new date for the Crookwell Aero Club’s fly-in — Sunday 15 November, from 10am at Crookwell Aerodrome! Unfortunately, the weather forced us to cancel our September event, so we’re crossing our fingers for blue skies this time around. We’d love to welcome pilots, students, aviation enthusiasts and families for a relaxed day of planes, helicopters and a good chinwag. Whether you’re flying in or driving out, everyone is welcome! We’d love your help spreading the word! Please forward this email to friends, family, fellow pilots, anyone wanting to learn to fly and aviation enthusiasts who might enjoy coming along. Pop the new date in your calendar. We’ll share updates through email, our website, Facebook and Instagram as the day approaches, including any weather-related changes. Pilots are encouraged to check current aviation weather forecasts and conditions when planning their trip. We look forward to seeing you at the strip!" https://www.crookwellaeroclub.org.au/ 😈 3
