Good afternoon members.

An update on prizes and the supporters club! We need your kind attention and possible help. Funds donated via our supporters club pays for monthly prizes, “supporters club” prize draws, group flight prizes. And any residual helps with our development and running costs.

Myself, Mike and Tony underwrite the running costs (plus contingencies) regardless, so we never need worry about an outage due to insufficient funds. However! We have been more generous with prizes recently, and have possibly overspent on prizes (much to Mike’s dismay – as our suffering bookkeeper!).

What does this mean for you ? 

Well, we’ve not offered incentives or prizes for the group flights during January, and will run a competition for February on a reduced “budget”.

Inevitably, the more we have coming in each month – the more we can distribute in the form of prizes and liveries.

What have we changed ?
