I don’t think EuroGA does voter buttons, but this might be useful on this thread?
I am happy to try and get to the Fly-in but would vote strongly for a location n France. Carcassone or Avignon as a suggestion, but Colmar also.
Yes I would vote for thumbs: up, down, and sideways. Its a lot easier to count than endless posts.
Also just a few more expressions. Not being an IT guy I would depend on it to get the true spirit of my post across.
We had a vote before – for the 2013 fly-in. It doesn’t work because many people vote for a destination they “like” but they are not in a position (for various reasons) to actually fly there. The classic “market research pitfall” 
I am taking everything on board and will decide soon
N2136E booked for this one.
Instead of a lunchmeat in LFAT, why not to meet in the capital of France?
A lunch under the Eiffel Tower, in the City of Light, who offers for everybody something nice.
I think many UK pilots would be visiting Paris as a day trip, and I did that too e.g. here but one cannot fly there practically anymore, since France stripped off Customs/Immigration from about 50 airports in early 2012. There is only Lognes – grass and VFR only. Everything else needs a stop on the way there and another stop on the way back, so almost nobody will do it as a one-day meet-up.
I think, as they say, the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence I guess we could meet up in some reasonably historic city but one which relatively near the Continent. There are a few of those e.g. Norwich or Cambridge. Then you have the Scilly Isles which are really scenic. The nearest place to France with reasonable surroundings is probably Shoreham EGKA which has a nice little old town, a bit run down, but with a river, houseboats, and some good fish restaurants.

If it’s reachable by less than a direct 7h flight, it must be no good for a EuroGA meetup

I’m pretty sure Le Bourget LFPB still has customs and immigration, is right in the center of Paris, has almost 3km concrete runway (if you can live with 45m width, otherwise 2.6km), IFR, H24… but it comes at a price. But they reportedly even roll out a red carpet for you

@Vieke, you are welcome to Paris anytime, but the brits, and particularly Peter, are allergic to non-customs airports (LFPT, LFPN) or customs airports w/o instrument approach (LFPL). They are also very fond of warm, sandy beaches. So Paris does not fit the bill
