Hi all,

So far the Spooks haven't made me a guest at Guantanamo Bay, so I'll continue on my merry way.

Katoomba Airfield has been made available to us for a Saturday, April 17 session. Thank you Rod.

With daylight saving ending, I believe, before then, I'll be looking to get there before sunset, say around 5:30, 6pm.

As always, everyone is welcome to join us.

If things are really good, and it gets too late for a safe return home, the Airfield's meeting room is available for us to crash in. Just bring a pillow and blanket.

I'm trying hard to get Odessius finished before this date to make its first light, but we'll have to see. Family, work and stuff has a knack of getting in the way of the best laid plans of mice and men.

I'll see about bringing some chillie popcorn too, Rob.

Mental.

P.S. The Airfield is accessed via Medlow Bath. Turn off the highway into Railway Parade (at the only set of lights at Medlow Bath), then left into Rutland (also called Grand Canyon Rd). The Airfield is 4km from this intersection, with the last 3km now a good dirt road. On entering the Airfield, turn left and proceed past the 'No Entry' sign and turn right at the hangers. We set-up on the main east-west runway.
