Lithuania to Kampala in an AN.2 - EM Strut Mon 6 April

Post by ColinC » Thu Apr 02, 2009 8:05 pm

The speaker on Monday 6th April is John Calverley. His talk will be
about his epic flight in an Antonov AN.2 from Lithuania to
Kampala. It will be liberally illustrated and have a musical slide
show for the intro and beer break.

This talk comes highly recommended - please come along.

Please also bring a friend or two along too. It is one of those rare talks
which are so factual, and it blows away one or two myths about
flying across Africa but also raises some doubts about what
happens in the event of an unscheduled landing.

As usual the meeting venue is the Plough at Normanton-on-Soar.
Meet from 7.30 pm for an 8.00pm start.
