LAST REMINDER
Get your renewal in the post today to qualify for the £20 renewal. There are still some show pilots who haven't renewed and John Cross does check who has paid before sending out passes.

Another reminder for those who haven't yet renewed.

RENEWAL GOES UP TO £30.00 ON 1ST FEBRUARY.

Lynne

Just a quick reminder that if I haven't received your renewal by tomorrow, 31st December, your LMA insurance runs out at midnight. You then have 1 months grace to renew at £20, after which it will be £30.
A big thank you to all member who sent me Christmas cards and good wishes.
