Membership payment

Just a thought, has there been any thought about setting up a PayPal account for the club, it would make it easy for the members to pay for their subscription by using PayPal?

The Ready bites back

The Ready likes to fly, not be tied to the ground. Dont be fooled it is a working machine albeit a small version. Yes it can hurt you if you are not careful - as I found out the hard way.

Will I fly again? Maybe soon but I dont know when........

Safety first is very important.

The advice I was given by Jeff was - learn to fly on a windy day because if you get good at it, then when its calm, you can get much better at it.

Abe decided to fly Mervyn's ready plane and was putting it throught its paces. Shock, ho… Continue

Great day out

Went last Saturday to the club and a few of the regulars were there.

Jeff and Mark were trying to start the mower which had come back from servicing but would not start.

Abe kindly gave me my first flying lesson but it was obvious I needed more simulator time. He took me through some of the basics and checked out my flight box.

Next I watched him fly his heli which he was obviously enjoying.

I decided to help Jeff with the mowing and had a go on the Honda 1180 which was a good laugh.

Finall… Continue
