Mill Hill 31st August 2025

We had decided to fly at Beeding Bowl today, but on our way there I received a message from Nick V saying that the better lift was at Mill Hill, so we changed venue.

On arrival Martin J and I found there was a good SW wind and Nick V was flying his Wildthing and Plane Sailing (a name he invented for this model)

Martin and I both had Wildthings which flew really well in the strong SW wind. I had a Coyote and Martin had a Blob, but we left them in the car as the conditions were too blustery.

During the morning we were also joined by George E (Wildthing and Blob), Nick W (Wildthing) and Dave K (Wildthing).

I had arranged to meet Bruce A for his second session of flying instruction and although we only had about an hour, Bruce progressed very well.

A number of our club members had decided to go to Beeding Bowl to give it a try. We decided to remain at Mill Hill because the conditions were really good.

Overall we had a great morning's flying and Bruce progressed well.

Beeding (again) 9th August 2025

 Taking advantage of the continuing South Westerley a good number of members had a good afternoon's session at Beeding Bowl.

Nine members turned out and we were pleased to welcome prospective members Frank and Adam to the slope. It was good to catch up with members who are unable to fly on weekdays.

Colin flew his Wild Thing, landing it at his feet on all flights. 

Colin, Tony, George, Nick and Robin all gave their WT's an airing.

Jon had his rather fine Hawk, a Stan Yeo Sierra and later a foamy Multiplex.

Some adjourned later for coffee and cake at the YHA at Truleigh hill and a good day was had by all.
