VPAC has been invited to attend events at
the venues listed below during this year. As usual please
contact the airfield before you set out and remember that
it is the pilot's personal responsibility to ensure that you
have appropriate insurance cover and adhere to the airfields'
safety and noise abatement procedures.
We hope that as many of you as possible
will be able to attend with your aircraft and we look forward
to a really good turnout at each event. We are looking for
volunteers to help to give regular attendees a break. Please
contact Colin Stearn in advance.

Leicester Aero Club Piper Fly-in
Leicester , Saturday-Sunday 15-16 August
tel 0116 259 2360 , web; www.leicestershireaeroclub.com
Hosted by the Leicestershire Aero Club this will be our fifth all weekend event. Camping is available on the airfield and there is hotel accommodation nearby. There will again be an excellent and very reasonably priced dinner in the Aero Club Restaurant on the Saturday evening. The 2007 event was blessed with great weather and all who attended had a good time. This really is not to be missed - if for any reason you can’t fly there then why not come by road anyway and stay over for the dinner?
