Same here, when I joined MaPS by post my membership card came by return of post ! I was MOST impressed. All thanks to our Membership Secretary Ruth Powell, who is unfortunately standing down this year after a lengthy stint in the post. Whoever takes on the job will have a lot tolive up to.
Thank you very much Ruth, your wonderful welcome to new members and efficiency will be sorely missed.

The Annual General Meeting is this coming Saturday, 9th July.

1300Z at the offices of On Track Aviation (near the Airfield Cafe), or join us on the XM655 pan for an aircraft visit before the meeting.

If you are a MaPS member, please make the effort to attend. There are changes to the MaPS rules to be discussed and voted on, and the more member inputs we have, the better.

Just a small correction to Sooty's post: the time of the AGM is 1300L (not Zulu).....

Was reminded of the AGM when I read the last newsletter for the third time last night ;)
Shame I will be unable to attend, given its my only free weekend from now until September ..... I may become 'damaged' if I decide to cancel plans with Dawnie. :-o :((
