The Flying Wine Club - www.theflyingwineclub.co.uk has been launched as a new on-line facility to purchase exclusive quality wines at affordable prices delivered direct to your door – through The POM Flying Club.

We would like to encourage as many people as possible to join The Flying Wine Club, so you don’t have to be a member of The POM Flying Club to join……in fact you don’t even have to fly to join!  If you have enjoyed an Air Experience flight with us and want to buy your wines on line then please sign on to the web address below and register to become a member. Every one is welcome – the more the merrier!

 In association with Wine Discoveries, The Flying Wine Club has launched this on-line wine business offering a range of wines from small wineries around the world where quality at affordable prices is the main objective. The wine club offers the chance to try some great wines that are exclusive to us, learn about the wineries and the wine makers too.

 The web site – www.theflyingwineclub.co.uk is ready to roll and the wines are all here in the UK ready to ship and to be enjoyed. We will deliver directly to your door.  

 These wines are superb and we are confident that you will be impressed with the wines which are of extremely high quality and which we have chosen especially.

 Please also spread the word – so if you have a local golf club/sports club/company or just a bunch of friends who want to have a fun evening trying wine – we can organise a wine tasting for you.

G'Day Bruce!

 Say hello to Bruce Lincoln the latest POM Flying Group Member and aircraft equity shareholder. Bruce was a Submariner in the Royal Navy for 28 years. It was during this time that he took up gliding at the Portsmouth Naval gliding club, eventually obtaining a gold badge, with diamond height (20,000' ) he also became an air experience instructor. Bruce went on to complete the Private Pilots Licence in 1998, and flew a PA28 out of Lee on Solent. Following his recent move to the Grimsby area he decided to find a share in another PA28 to get back into flying.  After revalidating his licence under the guidance of POM Flying Group Instructor, Edward Hawkins, he now enjoys regular flights from Humberside airport and intends to add to his flying experience by eventually completing the IMC Rating (instrument meteorological conditions), and the Night Qualification. 

Another Flying Success with The POM Flying Group!
