he MEC AGM took place last month, a virtual rerun of 2010. In some respects this is good, as it indicates a degree of stability; less so in others, as largely the same issues of more jobs to do than people to do them were still alive for debate. Happily the subscription rates remain unchanged.
The reports and notes that were presented are all available to members on the club website (you must log in) in the Committee Notes section.
Also shortly to become available online is another batch of Bernard Beeston's archive which arrived for scanning and posting, giving (once complete) a total of 20 articles — still not yet half the total that Bernard has contributed over the years!
I'm afraid I never did catch up with the missed month back in the spring, and so the 2011 Volume of Take Off will close with just five issues. However, this month we've got a fairly hefty mag so I hope you don't feel too short changed.
Over the year there has been another good range of contributors to Take Off and so, like last year, I'll just take a moment to acknowledge the following people (in no particular order); Jack Veeke, Nick Poll, Bernard Beeston, Alan Town, Ralph Hough, Stuart Cyphus, Mick Harris, Ian Jenkins, Peter Darby and, of course, Alan Hitchcock and Tony Yates for their regular input.
