kc Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 I will go on the Saturday if possible ( to be at my clubs field for the Record attempt on Sunday) Last year I realised I had been standing in the RC spectators area just about 5 or 6 ft from you Ron without realising it was you! I will try to say hello this time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Gray Posted April 18, 2023 Author Share Posted April 18, 2023 Yes I'm planning on going on the Saturday back for the WRA on Sunday. I will be wearing my hat! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piers Bowlan Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 I hope to be there, I will look out for the hat Ron! Which models are you planning on taking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely the Mustang and probably the Giant Revolver on the trailer! If there's room maybe even the Hurricane! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Walby Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 Planning on being there both days, hope the weather is ok and then the DR1 will get an outing + Dual Ace and FW 190. Possibly the cub if the FT200 gets fitted For a chat I should be easy to spot with a red baseball cap and a slightly pained expression!

Geoff S Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 We may attend but I won't be able to fly as I don't have a 'B' cert. We'll probably stay a few days at a Caravan Club CL somewhere reasonably near. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John T Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 I'll probably go if the weather's ok. I've never attended one of these events at Old Warden before. I'd be interested in flying from both the free flight and the R/C flight lines, but I don't know if this is really a practical thing to do. Would I be better off sticking to one or the other? Perhaps someone who's flown there before could advise... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Gray Posted April 26, 2023 Author Share Posted April 26, 2023 You could do both as you don’t have to stay on the flight lines all the time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kc Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 (edited) It's this weekend! I will go on Saturday -weather looks fine but a bit breezy. Ron, I am not flying so I won't be in the pilots area, but I will stand outside the fence and give you a shout if I notice you with your hat and a Mustang!

Ron Gray Posted May 12, 2023 Author Share Posted May 12, 2023 Look forward to meeting up, I’m hoping to get there for 10 ish. I’m taking both the Mustang and the Revolver, being big (ish) with a bright red fuse you shouldn’t miss it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Hooper Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 Hoping to go on Sunday. I've dusted off and test-flown my 60" Clean Sweep, Boomer Bus and maybe a diesel-powered something. If it's calm, then I'll be having a bit of capacitor-powered fun on the FF line. Might even pick up a bargain..... Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 (edited) Coming Saturday with the wife so not flying but will say hi, then off round the collection. Edited May 12, 2023 by Ace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have any photos of the event to share Ron? I was tempted to make the pilgrimage but I had a great day sailing in Poole harbour instead. Closer to home too. Hopefully make the Modelair Scale weekend on the 22/23 July. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RottenRow Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 Yes it was good chatting to you and a few others from the forum yesterday, and putting a few faces to names. I was surprised how chilly it was (considering it is May). Some nice models there, I didn’t take any photos unfortunately but will be there again today so will post a few later. A good day out. Brian. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Walby Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 Well what a difference a day makes! Saturday being cold and a bit windy and then Sunday with next to no wind and bright sunshine all afternoon. Good to chat with ACE and Ron + a few others and of course big thank to the guys that gave me a R clip and spare prop for my DR1 after the wheel fell of on the take off run The Dual Ace with a pair of Laser 70's go a good few flights in (might have been the only IC twin there?). Ron, I didn't think the Revolver was too loud, but then again its never going to pass 82dB, but sounded sweat all the same. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John T Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 I went on the Sunday. The weather was absolutely perfect. I spent most of the day flying rubber powered models in the free flight area although I did wander over to the R/C flight line later in the afternoon to fly my Martian Space Ship. A thoroughly good day all round, although I was surprised there wasn't a bit more of a trade presence there 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for coming up to the oily end of the runway, although I think I'll stick with 1, 2 or 3 wings 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
