    UPDATE........ Hi All,,,, Ive found one at last Back in may i started this thread looking for a Waterhouse & Eley "Super Fly" Whether it be an airframe or a complete original kit, which i particualy wanted to find one again to mark 30yrs since i started flying which is coming up in 2 years time The Super Fly was the very first plane I learnt to fly on back in the late eighties ....which I had 2 of them back in 2012 (see photos above ) along with the many others I've had over the past 30 years almost,,,, I must be honest, it was a bit of a long shot to find one again as the Super Fly was produced in 1975 (42 years ago) and are now very hard and rare to find... but the wait has paid off as thanks to Vincenzo Grà I now have a full untouched Kit Although I'm not intending to fly it when its built as my health wont really let me keep flying much longer and now I have one,,, i will build this plane when i get round to it to tie in to celebrate my 30 yrs in the hobby I can 100% say my RC Flying days are now all but over which over the past 30 years almost has been the best fun I could have had

    I Must also say that and being 100% totally honest ,,,, I've never had a Super Fly that was over weight as you call it and that didn't fly as well as mine did ... maybe i was one of the lucky ones with the Super Flys

    Hi Percy I remember reading yours and Tom's replies to my original post 5 years ago,,,, like you I am well experienced in model flying as ive been flying for 28+ years now .... The Super Fly was the very first plane i learnt to fly on back in the late eighties and it is my all time favourite trainer of which I've had many over the years and would love to find one again if i can

    Hi Denis personally I would have to say the " Super Fly " was a far better plane to fly than the ready 3 but thats only my personal opinion and preference
  13. GaryW
    I even kept the original plan ( pictured below )

    I originally posted a wanted for any Waterhouse & Eley " Super Fly " 5 years ago and luckily found 2 (pictured below) which both flew 100% faultlessly and the time has come that i would love to own one again so to repeat my search once again.... do you have a 1975 Waterhouse & Eley " Super Fly " ??? and want to sell i already have one and it flies very well, ive been flying super fly's all my flying life and would like to buy more what im looking for is complete airframes or an untouched kit if you happen to have one if you have one and want to sell please give me a call on 07572 130441 or email me @: [email protected]   Edited By Hawke225 on 08/05/2017 20:49:34

    Posted by Rob Buckley on 24/12/2014 14:51:55: While Article 253 removes the applicability of many articles form SUA's, the interpretation being given is a bit backwards. If somebody was to go to Heathrow & throw bricks at passing 737's they would be in breach of Article 137 (because 737's are aircraft in the ANO). If somebody was to go to a model flying site and throw bricks at passing models, they would not be in breach of Article 137, as SUA's are not classed as aircraft in the ANO (Article 253 removes the applicability from them). If however somebody was to fly an SUA at/into or very close to a 737 in a manner likely to damage it, they would be in breach of Article 137. It's the damaging of the SUA in Article 137 that is removed by Article 253, not using the SUA to damage aircraft. Edited By Rob Buckley on 24/12/2014 14:54:30 Totally 110% CORRECT !

    At the end of the day as long as you abide by all of the ANO and the regs as set out by the CAA not what alot of webites and online groups are saying then you wont go wrong

    one major flaw with the bmfa website and bmfa handbook, is they dont give the full info and details of the rules and regs of quadcopter/fpv flying which is fully available on the caa website bmfa shud correct this and publish the full info not what they feel applies

    this is what u need fro air navigation order and the cap articles   ANO 131, 138, 161, 164, 166, 167, 232 CAP 393   http://www.caa.co.uk/application.aspx?catid=33&pagetype=65&appid=11&mode=detail&id=226   it only becomes fpv when a camera is used as opposed to the all too common name " drone" a drone and uav or sua they the same are all the same    hopefully this may help   Edited By Hawke225 on 24/12/2014 01:03:03 Edited By Hawke225 on 24/12/2014 01:04:08

    Posted by Simon Dale - Firstpersonview.co.uk on 23/12/2014 14:53:57: I'm not really sure what this thread was originally about, or how we've ended up discussing this. I just replied to a comment about Quadcopters not being Models and we're on the merry go round again! Happy Christmas everyone! you're correct, quadcopters are not models,,,,,,,,,they are radio controlled aircraft / or in their official dsignation (UAV) unmanned aerial vehicles or drones even without an onboard camera fitted but even saying that no matter weather its a glider plane heli or quad, if its radio controlled and it flies it a uav

    WOW !!!!!!!! I am surprised in the way my original post has sparked of another angle the the conversation, i never expected that. now i humbly apologise to those who may or may not of took me comments in the context of say looking to pick an argument as i can assure you that wasnt my interntion, but for those of you that may of thought that was my intention all i can say is i cant help the way i type, and the way i word what im in essence trying to say. i know some even thrown of the fact that ive picked up on a 5 year old thread but reading the various comments and opinions which i can only say ive enjoyed reading fully, now weather or not ive done the right thing or the wrong thing by my commenting on this thread and bringing an extra spark of life to the subject, i hope you will accept my apology but if not , then hey i will admit to be a balding fat dumbnut lol Happy Christmas All !!
  24. GaryW

  25. GaryW
