Saturday 28th March 2015
Not a Bonus Day, but a fantastic event to drive into or fly:
The next stage of the Government’s plans for General Aviation will be unveiled on Saturday 28th March 2015 when the Government’s strategy for GA is made public at a joint Government / Civil Aviation Authority event at the Imperial War Museum Duxford. Key players in the GA world will be speaking including Grant Shapps MP, Minister without Portfolio; Patrick Ky, EASA Executive Director and Andrew Haines, CAA Chief Executive.
Specialists from NATS will also be in attendance on the day offering advice on a range of GA airspace safety issues and air traffic control in general.
The event is open to anyone involved in GA and will provide an opportunity to hear an update on the Future Airspace Strategy, VFR operations deployment plan and the latest work underway through the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) and UK GA programmes.
The event will take place from 10.30am to 3pm. If you wish to attend then please RSVP to GAevent@caa.co.uk. There are still some fly-in slots available from around 11.00 onwards – call the Duxford Tower to reserve yours.
