AKF hold regular "fly-ins" around the Bristol
area. (an opportunity to meet one another socially as well as for kite flying). Normally fly-ins are
at Ashton Court estate, on the 1st Sunday of the month, in the summer we have mid-week
fly-ins around the area. After Fly-Ins at Ashton Court we meet in the Failand Inn at Failand. All members are welcome, but beware of the stuffed donkey! See DIARY for more details. |
