1977 autumn meeting

9th-11th September 1977, Middle Wallop

A strict ETA had to be given and adhered to, this event being made possibly only by Major Mike Somerton-Rayner's long and close association with the Army. An enormous grass field and comfortable Officers' Mess were the setting for learning about the history and development of the Army Air Corps organization with a static disply of fixed wing and helicopter aircraft. Mike gave a spectacular solo performance in a Skeeter helicopter. A military band was in attendance at dinner, a romantic occasion with candlelight reflecting beautiful silverware in the long polished table. At the AGM it was proposed that five Associate Members be appointed at discretion. There was divided response to the suggestion that deans of Medical and Dental Schools be informed of the existence of the BMPA.
