Ben B Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Just went onto the Britflight website to see if they had any new planes I could get myself for Christmas only to find they've stopped trading. Such a shame! I really liked their planes (have had two- the Breeze and the Hustle) and the customer service from Bryce was brilliant... A sad day.

Biggles' Elder Brother - Moderator Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 It is indeed a pity. I have their H2O and its a great little model - lots of fun off the water! I remember a blissful mid-summer evening, about 8:30pm, at Loch Ness with on-shore breeze, flying the H2O to a bagpipe accompanyment! If you don't like bagpipes - you'll have to turn the sound down!

Stephen Jones Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Hi , Yes that is a real shame i also have one of them it fly`s a bit too slow for me but i did buy it as a trainer for my son ,But he doesn`t like it Cos it does not have wheels on it , and also slow to him , although i could put wheels on . I heard a rumor that robot birds where thinking of buying them out as they are competition of course i have no idea whether there is any truth in this rumor .

Cliff Bastow Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 I was gutted to hear that Britflight was no more, I have a 5 year old Breeze which flies lovely but is getting tatty now, so I asked my wife for a new one for Christmas. I was really sad when she told me she could not get a new one. I guess the old one will have to soldier on a bit longer. I dont think it can be beat as far as fun per pound spent goes. I have found the aftermarket service from Britflight to be Excellent. As regards its speed mine is flying on the set up for the Hustle and is quite fast. Some good news though. my wife has ordered me the Greenair Vulcan kit instead!

Cliff Bastow Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Well the Greenair Vulcan turned into the Durafly Spitfire24! Kids had decided to go in with her and spend more dosh so i am even happier now! Looks great standing on my workbench. Cant wait to try it.
