Indoor Flying

We have recently rekindled a winter programme of indoor flying. This is held on a Sunday afternoon from 2.30 to 4.30pm at the Mount Sports Centre.  Dates set are 24 June, 8th July, 15th July (more to follow). This is an interesting way to sharpen piloting skills in a confined space with some very unusual model types.
