Scale Event 12 Oct at BMMAA

This what scale is all about..... Hang on a minute, how did the 109 get in the shot...??

BMMAA was the host for the next VFSAA Scale event held on Saturday, 12 Oct. Last year we had a great event and fantastic weather. Unfortunately this year we were not that lucky. The wind started off OK, but by lunch time it was quite strong and it was obvious it was not going to calm down. One round was completed, but it was decided to stop the event and reduce the potential for damaging the models. We can always fly again another time.

    We did have 13 starters and everyone that flew in the first round found it difficult, but were prepared to at least try. From BMMAA, we had Mark Peterson, Garry Thiele, Gary Sunderland and myself to give is a go. Hoping next time we do better with the weather. There is also a possibility of having two events at our field, but that has not been confirmed.
