Henley Aero Modelers Fun Day, Airshow & Fly In - 10 May

[Skinner]

You guys are becoming real famous, first you featured in last weeks local paper and now on Kwela .

[Low Level]

After the twenty three minutes of footage they took of your aerial display, they could have done better than the two seconds of fame they gave you, but nice any how.

They had to broadcast the best looking crew members, as well as the best looking REAL aircraft ofcourse!!!

I actually know someone who was on TV.

[Sad-Ham]

Anyone know on which night it will be re-broadcast?

Hey Skinner

Can one still get hold of that paper somewhere - pleeeeeze. .

Must show my dad his son is famous - and not on policefile.

Hi Ldel,
I've asked the lady from media24 who placed the photo's to get us copies, waiting for her to get back to me. I'm on my way to Singapore, will give you an update when I get back.
Cheers,
Mike.

Awesome for you FO Gyro - but I just see a blue gyro with smiley pilot and pax - where is the rest?

Are these jetplane models from your club, or just visiting. Unfortunately I had to leave early, therefore only seen the two smaller jetplanes in action. I would drive/fly very far in order to see the others in action. Maybe you can keep us informed where and when one can have the oppurtunity to see them in action.

It is absolutely awesome. Retractable under carriage, 400 kph. and the sound. For those who missed it, make a plan to see them. You will not regret it.

Did someone take a pic of the turbine helicopter? I forgot.

There might be some Jets in action this weekend, will get more details. One of our club members added a brand new F15 to his collection and is planning to maiden it on Sunday afternoon. If you guys want to fly in please use the dirt runways and watch out for models in the circuit.
Ldel, I send a copy of the Meyerton Ster featuring you and FO Gyro with him, he visited me yesterday, had an awesome flip in his MT03 thanks again Glenn
I’m adding a link to a video I took from the ground, quality not good though , amazing how it can hover in windy conditions , excellent display

PM me your email address, It's 5.3Mb, if too large I'll try to make another plan,

Mike.

Thanx Skinner - hope there is one for me and him. Gonna battle to take that copy of the FO.

Can't think of a more enjoyable payment for the Ster.

Keep us posted. Ufortunately family commitments in Alberton. Will try and be there on wheels.

P.S. In the 1% chance of flying there - how do we approach the field. Presume there won't be any radio on the ground.

[Skinner]

Hope to see you there... even if by car, Alberton is not far from us. If you decide to fly in, aproach and join overhead to the west of the field (west side of the tar road), no radio on the ground though. Inspect the circuit for model activity, sometimes the guys will cross your aproach path if using 01L dirt runway , 19R or 10L/28R (dirt) should be no problem
