I assume that nobody from WLG turned up then. We have had quite a few fly aways this year so everyone is worn out I think.

Looks like a heap of fun, and the scenery seems quite nice too winkyy.gif

The Malibu Strip in brightwater

Nice- private residential place is it? Does it have an ICAO or appear in FS?

It's owned by a car dealer called Ferguson I believe. It appears on the area VNC's I believe, but it's not in the AIPs or anything.
