I will post a 'venue advisory' on Weds 19th at around 9.00pm. Present long range forecast (as on Monday 17th ) is showing a 10-12 mph SW , present advisory is therefore Whitesheet. I will post the 'venue confirmation' as soon as the various forecasts allow, hopefully I will be able to do so a 'day or two' before the weather call. The 'Weather call' will be posted at around 8.00pm on the Friday 21st The Winter league comps are the perfect introduction to this exciting branch of our sport, newcomers are guaranteed are very warm welcome. Hints & tips on all things F3f ie, model set up, flying the course, turn styles, ballast decisions, etc etc are always freely given. Most sports models are perfectly suitable to use, you don't need an expensive F3f machine. It is through the winter league comps that very many F3f pilots like myself started.
