I regret to advise that the Bartletts field cannot be used on this date as the grass crop will not have been cut.

I will look for an alternative site or date and post the details as soon as possible.

[Mike]

That's a pity.

But for any of you fancying a slightly longer trip, the MSA 2nd F5J will be on, weather permitting.

Camping available on and/or next to flying site at Upton upon Severn...

Mike.

Shame as the site is nice to fly on at the moment. Pete Mitchell & I discussed it yesterday, but on phoning Dave Bishop, he said he is unlikely to drop the hay crop by 4th July. .

BTW, if any electric flyer's need a site that is flyable all the year round, even in winter for keen types, this one is available all year round, as access is very good now for parking and by way of track up to it. The gun club use it  every other sunday, but only in the morning.. Contact myself or Peter for details.

The next Bartletts event will be as previously published on August 15 2021 and details published later on this Forum

Thanks Ian, we should have all of the field to use by then
