High Country RV Fly-in Brekkie at Tumut

As you know, the High Country RV Fly-in Brekkie at Tumut from
9.00-11.00am Sunday 04OCT09, is just over a week away
(all RV’s and honorary RV’s welcome) and it leads nicely into
the nearby Jindabyne lunchtime BBQ event and presentations
from 12.00-2.00pm.

The attachments from Jindabyne provide general information
and specific airfield operational information for the day. 
They advise that a really nice day has been ordered with ideal
flying conditions from dawn to dusk, and if that works out as
ordered we’ll have to put them in charge
of weather for all our flying events.

More info can be found here Tumut Aero club
