Totton Flying 22nd March 7.30pm

I've just google old Willie. He was a pilot for Aer Lingus which reminds me my dads brother was a pilot for them. So he may have flown with him?? What i'd like to know is why didn't i get some of my uncles brains????

I've never met him either.

Kol just pm'd me and confirmed the meet is still on - great.

I might bring the 500 along but I'm not going to fly it - no means no ok.....I'm dangerous enough with the 450's in a big hall with high ceilings

I will bring the MSR as well - we could have some MSR dog fights!!

Cheers

Thanks for letting me potter around with my little esky this evening, guys! Nice to see how it's done properly... ;-)

Shame I had to leave before that plane came out - that looked like fun!

Great evening all - really enjoyed it

Kol, I so want your 600 and thanks for arranging the evening - nice to see the range of heli's even if we didn't get to fly the big ones!

MSR jousts need to be a regular thing - what a laugh.

Congrats to Gav for lifting the "trophy" tonight - well deserved.

Cheers,

Looks to be a nice, stable, first single rotor type machine.

Un. Be. Lievable!

Jim's plane looks like some kind of strange fish! I'm sure there must be someone on the roof with a long piece of string swinging it round...

Thanks for welcoming me along last night, all!

Cheers for the vid Gav
