You seen the photos in the media section? They're awesome. Great shot of Bobby. But my fave is the of Greg with the shoestring reflection on his sunglasses!

And I got my wings today! Thanks Simon for the tips, and thanks everyone else who trusted that I could land without crashing my Cessna.

Absolutely awesome article. You guys did a wonderful job explaining the club. You'd better bar the gates as you may get a lot of initial interest..

Well done all!

Jack.

Not quite right, Andre! You got your "Park wings" today. These are not the same as full MAAC wings and only allow you to fly limited models at our field only. See below for Park Flyer limits...

But you did well, congrats!

Park Flyer Class Model- An electric model of any construction whose weight does not exceed 2.5lbs (1.13kg) including flight battery. These models are also restricted to a maximum speed of 60mph (96kph).

All my planes are within this weight, so I'm good with that

Great article that genuinely reflects what we're all about. Well done!
Brace yourselves for membership applications...

Great article guys, I agree with Mike soon you'll need agents..

I liked Michael's quote ... "I don't like to belong in clubs where there's cliques. I just want to have fun,"

Thank you for representing the club.
