been made to the booking system to ensure all members have an opportunity
to book the aircraft in a fair and even
way.
Seven Slots can be booked
from 0830 until 1900, each slot being 90 minutes.
Booking online will be
overseen by the Operations Executive who will advise members if their
particular booking is not practical or feasible. This could be due to
aircraft maintenance or requirements for priority flights.

follows
1 hour or less : 1 Slot
1.1 to 2 hours: 2 Slots
2.1 to 3 hours : 3 Slots
3.1 to 4 hours : 4 Slots

hours requiring a Night Stop away are subject to approval by the Club
Captain.
A maximum of 3 sorties can
be booked including the current sortie.
Further bookings can be
made on completion of the current sortie.
