                      sorry mate must have missed it.

                      depending where to go then will depend on what models your after, dandeman has picked a couple of fairly close ones, there is also TJD's just the other side of the dartford crossing, which i would suggest is quite a good place if your after things like Align models 600, 500, 450. if your after a contra or something like that then you have als models in hainault, colin bliss models in Maldon, heaths are just up the road to me, in hadleigh they speciallise in cars and boats, they have a few plane and heli bits, like if you were after a cx2 or a mcx then their ok for that and spares.

                      if you fancy visiting the club for a chat feel free, im there most weekends, although this weekend ill only be there saturday someone is always will ing to chat helis., were in two tree island behind leigh on sea station. if you fancy a trip down let me know and ill give you better directions.

                      if you visit the bmfa site they have a club list
                      http://www.bmfa.org/clubs/clist.php

                      youll find brentwood club near the top of the list

                      ours is further down but heres the club site
