History

BRIEF HISTORY OF THE STAMPE CLUB

The Stampe Club was formed when Roger Hanington (now an Honorary member) ‘rounded up’ Martin Holloway, Mike Cowburn; and Frank and Joanna Esson on the 14 January 1984, the first meeting of the Stampe Club!

The first Fly-in was held on 20 May 1984 at Compton Abbas in what can be described as quite unfavourable weather conditions. Consequently, only five Stampes arrived. However, the next event was at Middle Wallop on 2 September 1984 when Mike Cowburn led a four ship formation which was followed by Brian Lecomber who gave an aerobatic display in his Jaguar sponsored Stampe.

From this modest start, the Stampe Club has developed into what is now a truly international Club of Stampe enthusiasts, representing ten different countries

About us

The Stampe Club

ABOUT US

We currently have 60+ members of the Club 2/3 of whom are based in the UK. The balance is predominantly in Europe, though we do have some further flung members. With a rather specialist aircraft our intent is to link things “Stampe” through a network of interested parties. And I use the term “Network” on purpose – the idea being that we can direct each other to people who may be able to help through their own experiences. We will act as a central point for coordination of more formal matters with the CAA or LAA as appropriate, as recently evidenced by the relaxation of CAA rules allowing the Stampe to operate on a Permit.

Beyond this we will operate with a light touch and, as a new committee will explore what members want more (and less) of, whether that be Fly-Ins or other social events.
