Club Meeting 2/6/2026

Hi Everyone . I just thought I would give you a heads up on the meeting on Tuesday 2nd June 2026 . It was well attended with 20 + members present with a few brave souls flying . Nick has spoken to Fred & Paul and they confirmed that they have no plans stopping us using the site . The club would like to remind everyone of the following. Flying times 7 days a week are 9AM to 5PM for electric models with a start time for IC models 10AM. Please stick to the footpaths , no models to be placed on the long grass If you happen to land off the runway or in the surrounding fields 🙈please retrieve your plane on your own via the shortest route . Please don’t park over the roadway and if tractors are operating please give them the right of way . We are very lucky to be able to use this site so please stick to the rules , I know I wouldn’t want 50 blokes sitting in my back garden reving up engines . The club fly in is scheduled for a weekend in July dates to be announced shortly. If I’ve missed anything please leave a comment . Thanks Jeff
