New Gate


Great place for a wind sock, the counter balance is not in place yet so if you open it wear a hard hat and watch your fingers...I would advise strongly that you walk to the pits untill the gate is finished.

Hi all. We need some help this Saturday please...

We now have the new secondary gate to the flying field.
It's been made but it needs to be installed - and that where we need your help.
Please turn up at 10:30 at the field Saturday 22 Aug.

Also need a few items to help with the "construction".

Shovels, Wheelbarrows, Buckets.

It's usually a good laugh when we do this with a lot of banter so please come along and remember

So please come along.

"Gordon Bennett" - It's The Sheppey Air Museum At Eastchurch.

I have mentioned this before but Sheppey has such a unique place in the history of UK aviation and this small museum is on our island to visit...
My interest was fired up as I wanted a picture of the poster about the
Gordon Bennett Air Race held at Eastchurch in 1911 and there are no images of the poster anywhere on the internet.
Found what I wanted here proudly displayed.
Just a few pictures but you need to go along to have a look. Regards Peter

RC Hotel - Prize Draw.

Here it is folks. To get an impartial person to draw the winning ticket Jan had to visit the dentist so the receptionist Amanda kindly agreed to be filmed drawing out the winning ticket....
You need to look at the video to find out who won!
