"WASHKOSH 2015" August 29th-31st

"WASHKOSH" 2015 August 29th-31st Wingland Airfield

WHAT A FABULOUS SUMMER WE ARE HAVING...!

And how better to round it off than a wicked fly-in at the coolest little airfield in the East of England..!

By popular demand, the guys of the totally mental“Green Dyke MASSIVE” and their famous hospitality, would like to invite one and all to our Special Summer Fun Fly-in “WASHKOSH” on the 29th-31st August.

We had an exceptionally good turn out of Rotary wing aircraft at our "Wacky Weekend" earlier in the season, so a special shout goes out to all the helicopter and Gyro pilots out there. Come and show us what you got.

Paramotors especially welcome, as we are very Paramotor friendly, and we just LOVE to play...! Bring your pylons and cones along and have a ball.

"Squadrons" and "Balbos" of Flexwings and 3 axis feel free to drop in and join the fun. Also single type flocks most welcome (do you have a C.42? Eurostar? Skyranger?). If so, find some others and fly in, in formation. Whatever you fly, why not get together with a few mates and organise a club expedition from your club..?

Turbines maybe? (Twin Otter? Buffalo?) and ZEPPELINS are especially welcome (hey, we are traditionalists too), as are all our other lighter than air colleagues, it would be nice to put a couple of balloons up over the weekend whatever they have suspended beneath them. 

As always, for those who do not have access to an aircraft for the weekend, or simply want to bring the family along to join the fun, feel free to come by car, and don''t forget you can pitch a tent or park a caravan/motorhome for FREE..!

(...we firmly believe that children are our future, teach them well and let them lead the way). 

Early arrivals from Friday afternoon on are most welcome, and it is only £5 per adult to attend (yup, we promised it would always stay affordable!), and for those who have a business or product that they would like to display and sell, it is only £20 for a Tradestand (Tradestands are companies selling specific items aircraft/engines/avionics etc).

ALL proceeds go to the Air Ambulance (thats ALL proceeds, not just a token “Donation”).

Individuals selling surplus items are not classified as tradestands so feel free to have a hanger clear out on us. We dont provide a tent for this, so bring a gazebo and a table.


As usual, the freebies... 

Kids are FREE!, Camping/Caravan parking is FREE!, Landing fees are FREE!, Bouncy Castle is FREE!, Entertainment FREE! Chilli supper on Saturday night FREE!. - Just bring your own beer.

(Jerrycan shuttle service available for fuel if required).

PLUS- THIS YEAR ONLY, WE ARE GIVING AWAY 12 MONTHS FREE ASSOCIATE MEMBERSHIP TO EVERY ENTRANT!!

So shove the dates in your diaries, and come and join the fun. This is the very first "WASHKOSH", make sure you are here so that in years to come, you can tell the grandchildren... "I was there..!".

For those who would like to bring a caravan or Motorhome, just give us a call to let us know so we can make sure there is a pitch ready for you.

For those with talents of a musical or comedy variety, we will have an “open mike” session, so bring your guitar...
