Tim Mackey Posted October 29, 2007 Author Share Posted October 29, 2007 15 mph west to S/west. showery, but well flyable I reckon. Remember 15mph at RAF valley equates to a pretty strong wind at the summit of the GT Orme.Limbo tape...I used to use adding machine paper rolls years ago for limbo comps...but they are probably a bit rare these days ?Off to beddy byes now...see you for bacon butty and sticky bun at ASDA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee Morgan Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 Andy We could do a sunday but there will be alot of walkers and general non-flyers there and unfotunatly your not aloud to use them as target practice. If someone wants to organise one for end of nov beginning of dec then I am up for it, maybe at the long mynd site this time? Let me know what the thoughts are could even start a seperate thread for it, maybe the Ashby boys could make it this time too.TimThanks for the batt's mate, I need to sort a charger and tx pack let me know if you see any good deals. See you sooner rather than later, Maybe you could get that point back lol ( oh by the way I Lee Morgan took Timbo out of the sky ) hooray OJ Tim OJBest R'sLee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Green Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 LeeLong Mynd would be most suitable, but it is permit controlled.Will do my best to attend next one - seems I missed a good day.Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Morgan Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 Dave did you not hear, Jetsome came in a really nice camper and we had tea and sticky cakes. oh you missed out Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Mackey Posted October 31, 2007 Author Share Posted October 31, 2007 Yes and Timbo also managed to whack mr Morgan's Wildthing once or twice oooeerrr missusAnyhows....how the heck dya work out just who took out who when you are both chasing each other all the time LOL Pity a few more couldnt make it we did have a great days funAs soon as I get the photos from Des, I will send an article to David. As for the next one...well of course I am biased - but the Orme does allow unrestricted access and flying. I am happy to arrange another session if peeps want it, and a weekend is do-able, but as Lee says, can get pretty busy up there. If folks are happy to brave the elements, then winter weekends are generally quieter and free from tourists, and often have great sloping weather - I could always invite the locals to join in, and then the more the merrier.
