Russian & Eastern European Fly-In 23rd Sept '12

Post by Radleigh » Mon Mar 19, 2012 5:07 pm

Hi guys,

I've been arranging this now for a few weeks with Jeff, the airfield manager at Sywell. It's the first event of this kind to be held there and with luck, it should hopefully have a good turn out.

I'm inviting several aircraft types, arranging from An-2's, Yak-3/9/18/18T/50/52's, Wilga's, Technoavia SMG-92, Sukhoi's and Zlin aircraft with some hope of more.

There is a public viewing car park with an aviation museum attached, parking there is free and visitors can wander down the hangar line (off airside) to get a good view of the aircraft.

Please show your interest and weather you would be able to make the day by replying.

Thanks for looking, Radleigh.
