damono Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Hi all, Bit of a shot in the dark approach but thought this would be the best place to try... anyone here a regular at Lethbridge (Vic) or a member of the GSA club ? I'm fairly new to the local area and would be keen to know a bit more about the field / club. cheers, D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Evan. Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 G'day and D, I'm afraid I'm not a member down at Lethbridge. However I can tell you that the times I have stuck my head in to have a look at there whilst driving past, and everyone has been very friendly. I got a tour of their clubrooms and invitations to their social dinner, plus a couple of other events straight away! I think the best time to go would be on a Saturday at lunchtime, as they have a bbq lunch and many people fly in for it. Hopefully some more knowledgeable people will also chime in at this point... Cheers, Evan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil_S Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 Hi Damono, I have flown there a few times from Penfield and have always had a friendly reception and chat to whoever was hanging around! Also some interesting planes in the hangars. Runways are grass. Why don't you give them a call? The number in ERSA is 0429 354717 (owner Garry Baum), or Country Airstrip Guide has CFI Bruce Vickers on 0400 849031 - I'm sure they would like to hear from you.... Cheers Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

damono Posted May 7, 2011 Author Share Posted May 7, 2011 Hi everyone, thanks for all of the feedback. Lethbridge sounds like a good field/club - and it seems unanimous that a Saturday would be the perfect time to visit (just in time for the bbq). Thanks again.
