    Unfortunately, due to the escalating COVID-19 Pandemic and the recent advice from both the Australian and Victorian Governments, the Kyneton Aero Club has taken the decision to cancel all public events until at least late-May.

    If the situation improves and we are able to hold the Cancer Council "Australia's Biggest Morning Tea"and/or our CASA AvSafety seminar at a later date than originally planned we will post details ASAP.

    Maryanne Wright has been Accounts Manager of Wrightsair for nearly 30 years.
    With this background she is rich in knowledge of the history, personalities (namely Trevor Wright), the energy and sheer hard work that has made Wrightsair the success that it is today.
    Wrightsair has gone from a very small 2 to 3 aircraft tourist business in the early 1990s to a company with over 20 aircraft, employing 20 to 35 commercial pilots plus administration staff today.
    In addition it runs the iconic William Creek Pub!
    Maryanne who with her partner, Adrian, is a regular at our RMH Neuroscience Foundation "Gourmet Hot Dog Fly-ins", will give a presentation on the history and growth of Wrightsair, an outback aircraft tourism and charter company.

    With the likely easing of COVID-19 restrictions over coming weeks we are hopeful that, with appropriate COVID safe practices being employed, we will be able to hold our Spring Working Bee to ensure the Airfield is maintained in its usual pristine condition.

    As we get closer to the date we will confirm whether the event will proceed and also advise what equipment Members should aim to bring along; in the meantime please put this placeholder in your diaries.

    The AGM of the Kyneton Aero Club Inc. will be held at 10:30 AM on Saturday 19th December 2020 at the Kyneton Aero Club, 1503 Kyneton-Metcalfe Road, Kyneton.

    Whilst the partial relaxation of the COVID-19 restrictions makes a physical AGM possible, the Committee recognises that some Members will prefer not to attend a physical meeting, therefore, the Committee also proposes to offer for any Member, who does not wish to attend in person, to be able to access the AGM via the Zoom application.

    More detail on how the Zoom application can be accessed and used will be distributed directly to Members prior to the AGM.

    With the partial relaxation of COVID-19 restrictions the KAC Committee believes it is appropriate that in order to help celebrate the end of a very challenging year we should go ahead with our Christmas function. However, this year the format will be different to ensure we can maintain safety and compliance with COVID-19 rules; therefore, as a hopefully one-off this year's event is a self-catered/BYO Picnic.
