On Sunday 3rd September 2006, Old Sarum Flying Club will be holding an open day.
Old Sarum Airfield is the UK’s 2nd oldest operational airfield, opened in 1917. You can wander around looking at planes, and even get airborne on a first-come-first-served basis. There will be aerobatics, a loop-the-loop, and a rather British activity - flour bombing.

My father used to fly from this airfield and was also a watercolour artist. I have been told that some of his watercolours are on the walls at Old Sarum. His name was E M H Slade AFC.
I would appreciate if someone could get back to me to let me know if this is the case.
Thank you
