John Privett Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 Hi everyone. As the title suggests I live in Surrey (well somebody has to!) and have been flying on Epsom Downs for the last 18 years or so. Like many others I'm sure, I first took up aeromodelling as a youngster, progressing rapidly through failed attempts at rubber-powered models to success with control-line and subsequently radio with a Tyro Major, Enya 19 and Futaba M6 gear. That was when I lived in the North East. Then a few years off for university, moving south, getting a job, getting married etc. etc. and returned to the sport/hobby in about 1991. Mostly fly sports fixed-wing models though I bought a small electric heli a few years ago and now fly a Sceadu 30 as well as the fixed-wing models - though I'm still a lot less proficient with the heli! I used to be a regular on the old "usenet" newsgroups and some of you will probably recognise my avatar (once it appears) from a.n.other forum...
