Eshot fly in

Post by berow »

I visited the eshot fly in yesterday. An interesting array of flying machines and contraptions, classic cars and various displays. It occurred to me that we should attend this event and promote our club and hobby. If anything it is an excuse to get together socially and pontificate about flying. Bill is there flying the flag for paragliders, I regret not joining him. Just saying😀

I have to agree with you Ron. Putting that to one side it would be good to have an informal barbeque and a social evening. I for one would love to hear about your birdman exploits in detail. Then again you have'nt seen my selling skills in action!!
