 With the first day of activities concluded at the Farnborough International Airshow on 16 July, ISTAT members and their guests convened that evening at Grosvenor House, A JW Marriott Hotel, for the ISTAT Reception. Attendees enjoyed an evening of networking, fun and relaxation at this historic property, which has been in consistent operation since the 1920s.
Members attending the airshow have also been taking advantage of the ISTAT Chalet throughout the week, for an air-conditioned break from the hustle and bustle of the show while taking in the spectacular views of the aircraft on display and flying overhead. The ISTAT Chalet is open through Saturday (21 July), with children of all ages welcome on Friday and Saturday. Closing out the week will be the ever-popular ISTAT Charity Day on Sunday (22 July), when ISTAT welcomes patients from Shooting Star Chase, along with their families and friends, to the Chalet. Please note that the Chalet will be closed to ISTAT members on Sunday. Be on the lookout for a full recap in the next issue of Jetrader. |
