    I'm doing a rebuild project which is advancing quite well, but a good Mk3 wot-4 wing would save me building something from scratch, and an undercarriage would help a lot.

    If there is anything out there, please get in touch

    Thank you,

    Oily :wink:

    would someone be good enough to let Ben know (or his Dad) that Martin has a free plane for him if he wants it.

    Please see post on the forum. If he does not want it, Trev has 2nd dibs :-)

    Thanks,

    Oily :wink:

    Gentlemen,

     

    Please remember that Flying R/C on Tuesday 18th August has been suspended by the Committee on grounds of safety.

    This is due to a mass take off of WW2 Warbirds from Biggin Hill at around noon/1pm..

     

    Most likely there will be various comings and goings during the day, might be worth taking a picnic to view same from the field.

     

    Thankyou,

    Chairman. :wink:

    Notice:-

    KENLEY'S HARDEST DAY Commemoration Flying Display.

     

    Camfc members have been asked to take part in a model flying demonstration on Kenley Airfield on Sunday 16th August 2015.

    Time: 12 noon until 3pm. Flying off runway as per last year.

    The event has been organised by the Kenley Airfield Friends Group.

    The BBMF will display over the Airfield during the afternoon.

    Static Display or Flying, just turn up, and show your membership card.

    Mike Williams has said he will be displaying at this event.

    Please come if you can,

    Chairman. :wink:

    IMPORTANT!

    Please take note:

    Due to Spitfire and Hurricane mass flight display taking place at Biggin Hill on Tuesday 18th August 2015, model flying at Fickleshole field is SUSPENDED for the day.

    Our field is within the flight path of such displays and it is necessary to take this action for reasons of safety.

    It may also be prudent to keep a good lookout during the days leading up to the 18th, as there will probably be practice flights taking place.

    Please pass this message on to other members,

    (the "hole" may be a good place to observe the mass flight, bring a picnic smile :D )

    Thank you,

    Chairman. :wink:

    Glad you made it Ben.

    It looked like you were having a good time (and Dad!)

    Thanks for your comments Dan, I am about to start this project!

    Just trying to figure out the best way of attaching the directional surfaces :?

    Oh! and how to sand the leading edges, my file sander is not interested!

    Oily :wink:

    Frank Hawke was a co - founder member of CAMFC back in 1977/8, in fact the very person who uttered "we should form a club" which was in order to square things with the Council.

     

    Sadly, Frank passed away on Saturday 30th May 2015.

     

    Personally, I had never met the man, but others have spoken of him highly. I met his son Richard, also a founder member of CAMFC, at the Crawley indoor meeting earlier this year.

     

    To those of you that may wish to be present at Franks funeral, there follows details of the event.

     

    I am requesting to the clubs treasurer that the Club makes a donation in Franks memory.

     

    Details:-

     

    The funeral and celebration of Frank Hawke’s life will take place on Thursday 11th June 2015; all are welcome.

     

    4:30pm service at:

    Surrey & Sussex Crematorium

    Balcombe Road

    Crawley

    RH10 3NQ

     

    and from 5:30pm at:

    Ghyll Manor Hotel & Restaurant

    High Street

    No flowers please; if you would like to make a charity donation in Frank's memory, you can do so at any time until 10 July by sending a cheque, payable to:

    • RNLI; and/or

    • Cancer Research UK

    Martin,

    I left a tatty foamy fuz for you with Rod on Sunday.

    Its been repaired a few times, but I wondered if you could use it?

    I don't want anything for it.

    It has a claim to fame as from the "RC model flyer" magazine review model.

    That is all,

    Oily :wink:

    replacing the carbon tube without ruining the fus would be next to impossible in my opinion. I have cut up several now, and the carbon tube is well fixed!

    If all else fails, a new fus is available from Ripmax for around £30.

    Also, it is near Wings and Wheels time, and there is no telling what I shall return with!

    The Cynao should work, along with the epoxy for the foam.

    Good luck

    Oily :wink:
