Hi, I’m Tim Harvey, and I’ve just taken over from Barry Birchall as the new Club Treasurer.

I’d like to start by thanking Barry for the good work he’s done over the years.

Firstly, a little about me. I built my bright blue Streak Shadow (K177 SA-1) over a two and a half-year period, finishing it at the beginning of 1994. David Cook did the first flights for me, and the first permit arrived in February 1994. Since then I’ve been fortunate enough to find a farm strip on which to keep it, where it lives, permanently rigged, in its own individual hangar. I’m lucky enough to be able to fly around 60-65 hours a year.

That’s more than enough about me.

In order to reduce the administrative burden the Club has decided to realign the membership year so that all renewals fall at the end of the year. In this way it will be easier to keep track of who has renewed their membership, and who hasn’t.

The membership fee is once again remaining at £15 per year. For any member who renewed their membership after the end of June this year we’ve decided to extend their membership until the end of 1999. New members will pay pro rata, depending on when they join throughout the year.

Lastly, I’d like to welcome our newest member, Peter Sarfas, from Basildon, and I look forward to meeting as many of you as possible at the fly-ins next year. You can’t miss me; I’m the wally with the flying suit!
