As it may be argued that we are low on the activity front as a club; I was wondering how members felt in having a half an hours flight simulation session? The activity can be arranged as a group booking with a one to one session with a qualified pilot on the simulator and an option to have a video of your performance. Costs, circa £100 for simulation experience and video.

Food and drinks is extra and will have to be arranged at a local Pub or Restaurant. Longer simulation sessions can be held but the prices increases as a result. Venue is at Northampton.

Currently, weekend bookings are not available until, after February 2014.

You are free to arrange a booking independently for your self but I thought it time for a 'group hug' for the club. 

Any one interested in the idea?

Rakesh at £100 for half an hour I could make it a bit more exciting than a simulator. No fatties unfortunately . smiley

Re: Flight simulation

Rakesh, I have been reliably informed that like me you are on the large side.

My 'no fatties' comment was in reference to the limited payload of the Mosquito and was not directed at you personally and I hope I have not caused any offence. Should you want to go for a flight over the mountains I have some friends who have a slightly bigger machine that will definetly be able to take both of us smiley.  Here they are dropping in for a visit.

Re: Flight simulation

Very diplomatically put - nice one. NO, I am not offended, because I cannot get away from the fact I AM FAT. As disadvantagous as being fat is, I am not ashamed of being fat; I wish I was not, but that my constitution.

Now, are you offering a ride? Put a package up and let us see how many bite. I think, I weight 155 Kgs, what are the weight limitations? wink
