2010

VPAC has been invited to attend events at the venues listed below during this year. We will endeavour to have at least one VPAC Management Committee member in attendance, weather permitting. As usual please contact the airfield before you set out and remember that it is the pilot's personal responsibility to ensure that you have appropriate insurance cover and adhere to the airfields' safety and noise abatement procedures. We hope that as many of you as possible will be able to attend with your aircraft and we look forward to a really good turnout at each event.
