I'm posting this on behalf of Tim Houlihan and myself.
Tim plans to attend the Texel fly-in in G-BZTH with me as ballast,
going Friday and returning Saturday (need to be back for commitments
on Sunday).
Just wondering if any of the other people from UK are likely to be
following a similar route to ourselves.
Here's the list of the UK people slated to be arriving at Texel on
Friday, sorted by departure field.
G-RVDG Vans RV-9 David Gill ZZZZ Bicester
G-BZTH Europa T Houlihan ZZZZ Defford
G-CEIW Europa classic SCANLAN EGTU Dunkeswell
G-DDBD Europa XS Trigear Brian Davies EGTD Dunsfold
G-BXDY EUROPA WATTS LADDINGFORD
G-ODJG EUROPA TRI GEAR CHALLIS ZZZZ LADDINGFORD UK
G-JBSP Jabriru (or maybe Esqual) Clive James Ludham
G-IVER Europa XS Tri gear Ivor Phillips EGMD Lydd
G-RVNH RV9A Norman Haines ZZZZ Malmesbury
G-BXUM Europa Dave Bosomworth EGHP Popham
G-RVIO Vans RV10 Hopkinson EGBT Turweston
G-CHOX EUROPA XS TRI-GEAR GOFF MOORE & IAN SWANKIE EGLM WHITE WALTHAM
(I imported to FileMaker Pro the Excel file sent out by the Texel
organisers so I could play with it more easily.)
Any of those folk want to form a gaggle (I won't say formation!) for
part of the trip such as the channel crossing?
We are still thinking about exact route and timing and I guess are
open to suggestions. Timing - neither of us want to get up at an
unearthly hour so we won't be leaving Croft Farm very early, but we
want to arrive at Texel in time for dinner! Route - I think a shorter
sea crossing appeals more than the one via KONAN offered in the PLOG
---From the organisers, then more or less follow the coast.
regards
Rowland
