Itinerary : There will be coffee etc available from 9.50am. We hope to kick off at 10.30 and do a revision covering all the theory subjects up to pilot level during the day, using PowerPoint presentation and a few props like air charts etc. With an anticipated finish at around 4.30pm
There will be a break for lunch at the pub, and the deal is that they have given us a free room but we will all buy our lunches there.
Note that this is a revision session and we are not actually doing the exams on this day.
Bring: An alert mind, something to make notes. Dinner money!
The lectures are free, (Though it is traditional to chip in to buy the instructor lunch!) and everyone is welcome, It does not matter if you are a hangie or a petrolhead, a club member or not You do not have to have been a student or customer of Northern or Sunsoar PG.
This only happens once a year at most so don’t miss it, even if you do not expect to be taking your pilot exam for a while!
See you there.
