Kilkeel Fly In

On the 24th July our members recently enjoyed a day out to the Kilkeel Fly in, hosted by our good friends at Mourne Flying Club. Our pilots few in, and drove in to support the event, with all proceeds being donated to two local charities, Southern Area Hospice and P.I.P.S. Newry and Mourne.

We had a fantastic day out, with over 120 aircraft in attendance, an opportunity to meet friends old and new after so long in lockdown, and of course, kilkeels legendary fly in BBQ.

Thanks and congratulations to the Nicholson family for opening their airfield and hangers to allow the event, it gets better every year! We know too well just how much work goes on behind the scenes to make an event like this happen - congratulations to all the members and volunteers in Kilkeel and Mourne Flying Club!
