We have a few new ideas (more to come later), but the thing to note now are the dates. We have moved it back to the end of May British Bank holiday, 28-29-30 May Put these dates in your diary and book your aircraft (if part of a group or using a club plane). Look forward to seeing you then. AG    Report

A quick update for the Rally: We intend to get the application forms ready by Christmas, I will keep you informed. Secondly, the Pomme d’Or Hotel has promised to give a small discount for booking early, the same as this year’s Rally. Further information will be passed to you as soon as I have it.

I have an update for the Rally for you: 1, We have our Guest of Honour, Fergus Woods, the Director of Civil Aviation for Guernsey and Jersey. He is a true friend of General Aviation and it is an honour to have him attend the Rally as Guest of Honour. 2, We can announce that we already have 2 entries for the Rally, one from UK and one from Norway. Those of you that want to enter the competition for longest distance travelled need to get your charts out, to see if you can win. We have had a winner from South England in this trophy, with some serious flying to the far north of Scotland, before realising the DI was incorrectly set? :) 3, I can also advise you that the offer from last year for early bookings, is back. If you book before 28th February and pay a £50 deposit, we can offer you a £5 per person per night discount on your entry fee. I will update you as soon as I have more information. Have a good Silly Season AG    Report

The following link will show you our parking area and club house in the middle of last week’s traditional weather. http://www.jerseyaeroclub.com/component/option,com_rsgallery2/Itemid,47/catid,9/ This weather is not expected to be experienced by you in the rally, but you never can be 100% sure. Hope you get to the air soon. Happy Landings AG    Report

This offer only applies to the first 10 single rooms reserved, Friday & Saturday night only, and cannot be used in conjunction with the Sunday night free offer. We also have the ₤10 reduction per room (double occupancy) offer if you send your application form and deposit before 28th February; this covers Friday, Saturday and the optional free Sunday night. You now have less than 1 month to enter, to enjoy these discounts, don’t delay enter today! Jersey’s Aviation Fuel prices in January were: AVGAS ₤1.07 Jet A1 ₤0.75 AOPA Member discounted price: AVGAS ₤1.02 Jet A1 ₤0.70 As soon as I know the February price I will let you know. If you are flying from the UK, don’t forget your draw back allowance for fuel carried south of the 50˚N parallel. Imagine a state of nirvana, tax back from the UK government, subsidising your fun over Normandy finding clues and winning prizes, followed by a fill at almost 50% off the price of fuel in one or two airports in the UK. No need to imagine; it will be here, in May, in Jersey! Happy landings AG :-)    Report

15/02/2010, 1:20 PM Ashley Gibbs Joined on 21/02/2004 Posts 88 Re: SPECIAL OFFER & Application Form Online Hello Everyone, A quick update and reminder of time running out to enjoy the discounted rates. The French start point? We are still waiting for a response from the French Authorities regarding customs facilities at Lessay. It looks increasingly likely that Cherbourg will be the starting point for the rally. When you arrive at the Aero Club, from now until the Rally, on a well earned weekend away, you will see a banner from airside, inviting you and other visitors to return for the 2010 Jersey International Air Rally. Don’t forget to reserve your Sunday Lunch with Luc and Edith at Cherbourg Airport (on the application form), not only will you experience their Europe wide, well loved Norman hospitality, but also you will be able to take good quality wines and spirits back home at EEC allowances, your biggest problem will be weight and balance calculations. We have a new leaflet for you to download and display in your Flying Club, you will find it at: http://www.jerseyaeroclub.com/content/view/240 Finally, the February fuel prices: AVGAS ₤1.12 Jet A1 ₤0.75 AOPA Member discounted price: AVGAS ₤1.07 Jet A1 ₤0.70 URGENT REMINDER, ONLY 13 DAYS LEFT!!! We have a limited special offer for the rally entrants who want a single occupancy room, ₤60 off the single rate, if you book before 28th February.

03/03/2010, 10:19 AM Ashley Gibbs Joined on 21/02/2004 Posts 88 Rally Update Hello Everyone, I have a couple of updates for you. First the March Fuel prices: Same as February, AVGAS ₤1.12 AVGAS AOPA PRICE ₤1.07 JET A1 ₤0.70 Second great news for the teams that consist of odd numbers: If you require single occupancy of a room and only plan to stay Friday and Saturday night you can still get a great discount compared to the normal single rate. We have just 7 rooms left for those who wish to have the privacy of single room occupancy at the special offer of ₤50 off the normal price, the ₤10 difference expired at the end of February. This means you will pay only ₤293 instead of ₤343 for a single room. (This does not apply if you wish to enjoy the free Sunday Night offer) If a single entrant, register now, you will not regret it.

14/03/2010, 8:43 AM Ashley Gibbs Joined on 21/02/2004 Posts 88 Rally Update Hello Everyone, I hope you are haven a nice weekend. I have a couple of updates for the Rally: We can confirm Lessay as our start airfield for the competitions. There will be customs and immigration available on this field for the day. This year you will collect your navigation exercise clues from Lessay. Start studying your plates; http://www.sia.aviation-civile.gouv.fr/default_uk.htm https://www.sia.aviation-civile.gouv.fr/html/frameset_aip_uk.htm https://www.sia.aviation-civile.gouv.fr/aip/enligne/PDF_AIPparSSection/VAC/AD/2/1004_AD-2.LFOM.pdf (While you are online, you might as well get the Cherbourg plates from the same site, for a viable alternate and for the Sunday when we go for lunch.) We are happy to announce that Cirrus will be displaying an SR22 outside the club house. More info on their web site. Sniff it, kiss it and paw it, you know you want to  As more updates come, I will let you know. Don’t forget out limited offer for those who wish to stay Friday & Saturday and require a single room, we can offer ₤50 discount, limited to availability, so book sooner rather than later to avoid disappointment. (Offer cannot be used in conjunction with the Sunday Night Free offer) Happy Landings AG    Report
