tonym Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 As last year we will have a 'blow the spiders out' F5J friendly competition during March at Little Bentley. Nearer the time we will choose a Sunday with good weather for flying. So: Get your sh models, radio, batteries, height limiter, etc. checked and ready pencil in all Sundays in March in your diary - and Sunday 24th Feb just in case - as possible flying days indicate your interest below and watch this thread.

tonym Posted February 20, 2019 Author Share Posted February 20, 2019 Right then. This Sunday looks like a really good day for flying, we'd be idiots to pass it up. So: Sunday 24th February from 10am at Little Bentley Polo Club. We'll run a few rounds, no prizes but £3 each for field hire. Who's in?

gem Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Hi Tony, I’m down in Plymouth this weekend so can’t take advantage of all your efforts to get an early comp. Have a great day and I’ll see you next comp. Regards Garry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonym Posted February 20, 2019 Author Share Posted February 20, 2019 Garry (and everyone) - depending on the weather in March we may try for another pre-season romp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kikapu Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Now I'm confused, Tony. Do you mean you're cancelling this Sunday's event (not that I've entered it - yet) and, instead, you are hoping to run a comp in March, or are you running one this Sunday and hoping to do so again in March?

Mr_SMO Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Hopefully should be able to count me in. I take it there's no need to state 2m or open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kikapu Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Thanks Pete. I'm so easily confused these days. Now I'm embarrassed to be corrected by an old sage like you. I'm in, and I don't care if there are to few of us to run a competition. Peter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eamon Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Sorry Tony, its a little too far for me for a warm up Hope you all have a good day. Regards Eamon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Minchell Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Yes I would have liked to attend too, but its a 4 + hour drive each way as I live on the north Wales border. Are there any plans for comps (or training/warm up sessions) in the midlands or North West? Regards John M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not aware of any one in these areas organising practice sessions etc, but there are a few comps in the coming months. I guess the nearest active flying sites to you would be around the Upton upon Severn area, or if you fancy a longer drive then Retford near Nottingham could be within reach. As far as I know, F5J is only flown at Retford. Sadly this forum gets no input from these areas so it is hard to know what is happening. Hope that's some help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
