Aero club Annual dinner..

I should have blogged about this a bit earlier.. Naughty of me!

Anyway, we finally had our annual dinner, which was a roaring success, as usual.. Thanks to fellow blogger Rodney, we hooked up with Rob from the Thunder Mustang outfit.. He couldn't quite swing it to bring the plane down, but he still entertained us!! Brought his certificate from the FIA to prove they have the record for AA-CH, I think he said like 1 hr 45 or something stupidly quick like that! He gave us an interesting talk about the preparations for the record attempt then the actual attempt itself. Facinating stuff, he went down really well with our members.

Here's a couple of crappy photos of the event:
