Hi everybody, we’ve made a few changes to the Gratton field page this week and we hope to be a little bit more proactive on what’s happening at the Calvet radio mode Society coming up this weekend we will be hosting the Queensland turbine flies Association for a weekend jet event flying will commence from Saturday morning at 8 AM and on Sunday from 9 AM. Flying will be all day and on both days. We will have food and drink available from the canteen so if you want to pop out and see some really great aircraft line come out this Saturday or Sunday. See you there.

Just to let you all know out there in the Covid World the Calvert field is still closed and after consideration of the MAAQ advice last week we feel it would be premature to re open at the moment.
With all the relaxations going on and some due as early as tomorrow we do not think it will be too long before we can move to re open. Any changes will be posted via email to all members

Just a note to all our members and friends to advise the field has Re opened. We have had good rain and the facility is looking great. Hope to see you all at the field in the near future

Happy New Year to all our members and friends. We hope everyone has had a great festive season and Santa has provided you with many new flying toys.
Unfortunately, the rain gods gave not cried enough over our field during the break to allow us to Re-open so the field closure will need to stay in place for a while longer. Until that day keep working on your projects to have them ready for the opening of our flying season for 2020.
Happy New Year from Chris, Cheryl and Wassa.

This is a reminder to all members and visitors that the CRAMS field will be closed for all flying until further notice.
This decision has been made in light of the current fire situation in Queensland.
As soon as there is a change we will advise everyone.
