The Shillito Flying NOCHAT WhatsApp group is for the sole purpose of posting intentions to visit the flying field to fly or for any other purpose.
It is also used by the few Members who actually contribute to the upkeep of your Flying Field to signify that maintenance, including the regular grass cutting, is taking place.
No flying is permitted whilst the grass is being cut, other than by the grass cutter himself.
Termination of any maintenance work will also be announced in this group.
The purpose of these announcements is so that Members can organise their non working visits around them and not be inconvenienced by arriving to find work in progress.
Use of this group is compulsory for any visits to the Flying Field.
The Shillito Chat WhatsApp group is for everything else including any ‘attaboy’s directed in the direction of Members carrying out work on your flying field.
Membership of and use of this group is voluntary.
There is another used by the current instructors and trainees to organise training sessions and provide advice if required.
