25-02-10 - New Year, New Committee, New look News
Well, a very belated Happy New Year to you all (yes i know it's nearly March!).
So with this New Year we see there are a few new faces in the Committee. For look at some of the new officers please see the Committee section.
One of the chaps stepping up to the plate this year is young Stevie Mills who has taken over the difficult task of producing our fine MMFC Newsletter which the other Steve (McDermott) made his own over the last six years. I've also taken an opportunity to revamp the news section here on the website with an improved site status section you can see at the top of this page.
Finally, check out the GALLERY section for some new snaps sent in by our members.

Happy Landings
- Chris
