No Flying on Total Fire Ban days
In view of the dryness of the field and surrounds
at the moment, it is inappropriate that we fly on days of Total
Fire Ban.
Accordingly, no flying is allowed on these days.
If you happen to be at the field and you notice
anyone apparently intending to fly on a Total Fire Ban day –
please pass this on to them.
