    I'm with those who started with kits and plans. A couple of ARTF I had were not a great success !

    Painting clear plastic (pop bottle) mouldings, if done on the inside gives a good high gloss finish. Great for cowls.

    Many years ago people used the black bases from plastic bottles for cowlsthen they stopped making them then Alex Whittaker designed a scale model using a soup pot as a (very convincing) cowl then they changed the type of pot, Be warned if you think this will be useful, stock up now.

    I An article in Sunday's mail about noise in restaurants listed places with noise levels regularly over 82 dB with some reaching over 100 dB. It would seem that some people actually like it the louder the better. I personally hate loud 'music' in pubs, restaurants and bars weather juke box or live. In fact in my opinion high volume used by live performers is generally in order to mask lack of talent.

    My wife can't read a map, I am ashamed to say when she was making a total mess of finding the way one time I took the map off her and chucked it out of the window, Well it was either the map or her !

    .Our clubs previous flying site had bullocks in it they were kept of the strip by an electric fence (apart from one that occasionally jumped the fence!) the main problem was they would lick the cars and that took the shine off and a couple tried to 'mount' the cars , knocking the wing mirrors off.

    Kevin. Glad they went to someone who can preserve them by scanning to save on disc.

    Martin you have hit the nail on the head. with the law as it stands the directors of 'Limited Companies' are not held responsible for the debts of said company if it goes broke and can (and often do) re start what is in effect the same company with a slight change of company name whilst leaving the customers of the old company 'up the creek' an feel nothing for them. In other words pull the ladder up I'm OK. Yes it stinks.

Individual plans I could send  at postage cost.           Edited By Mowerman on 31/07/2017 11:55:48

    Reminds me of when a pal at work got exited on seeing what he thought was a UFO. When we got the binoculars out we could see it was Father Christmas, actually a large inflatable santa that had 'escaped' from ?? This was slowly drifting along the flight path about 12 miles from Heathrow

    Great. if only our club was big enough, rich enough and owned its field. Long term it could all be for naught if the current trend of concreting over the countryside to provide houses for ??? continues or some determined killjoy moves in near the field. Sorry to sound like a doomsayer but I do applaud your efforts and wish you a long future at that magnificent site.
