Next Monday(9th March) sees the next OAG meeting when we'll be welcoming Steve Bridgewater talking about...... : "In 2007, to celebrate the 85th anniversary of the King's Cup air race, aviation journalist Steve Bridgewater and his flying partner Amanda Harrison flew to 14 former race venues in a single day. Their flight, in a Brize Norton Flying Club PA-28, formed an entry into the Pooleys Dawn to Dusk competition. From carb icing to torential rain and a suspected burst tyre the day was not without its snags - but their 10hr flight earned them the Tiger Club Trophy for the second year running."
