damono Posted May 4, 2011 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
.Evan. Posted May 4, 2011 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
Neil_S Posted May 5, 2011 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
Spriteah Posted May 6, 2011 Posted May 6, 2011 D, Yes I'm a Member and yes use the park. It's a great friendly club. 50 Aircraft hangered there. Drop in any Saturday for a chat. Jim
damono Posted May 7, 2011 Author 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. D
