Coningsby closed Friday?

Post by Blackcat1 » Wed Jan 24, 2018 1:25 pm

Hi all

A friend of mine has been told Coningsby is closed this Friday (26th Jan) is there any truth in this?

Many thanks

The Notam I posted was taken off the site today, and issued yesterday, so I guess they've changed the opening times.

cheers

And has therefore been superceded by the one posted above as that was created on the 23rd Jan
