About The Oxford LAA Group Strut
We are a local branch of the Light Aircraft Association, fostering a passion for aviation through talks, flying, and social events every second Wednesday at Sturdy's Castle Country Inn.
The Oxford Branch of the LAA was set up in 1972, then called a "Strut" of the Popular Flying Association (PFA), and over the years members have met at a variety of venues.
Our current meeting place is at Sturdy's Castle Country Inn, Banbury Road, Kidlington, Oxfordshire OX5 3EP. We generally meet every 2nd Wednesday of the month at 8.00 pm.
The Oxford Branch is one of a number of Branches of the LAA dotted around the country. Each Branch although self governing, is a member of the Light Aircraft Association (LAA). Many of our members are also members of the LAA, particularly those that are building their own aeroplanes, or are operating 'Permit To Fly' types.
We organise monthly local social events and talks to provide a local focus for recreational light aviation, encourage enjoyable social activities and flying activities, improving safety knowledge and understanding and to maintain awareness concerning local threats or potential restrictions on light aviation activity. Our members come from all types of backgrounds with a common interest in light aviation.
Guests are welcome at all our events, so please feel free to pop by and give us a try!
