Break in the Weather – 21/10/2023

Five pilots chanced the weather today and it turned out to be a gamble that paid off!

Flying was again from the main North/South runway, the wind was 3/6mph and the surface dried out by 11am.

Lots of flights were recorded, with only one mishap, a model tip stalled on landing knocking the undercarriage off.

Paul had a lucky escape, running through pre-flight control surface checks the elevator control clevis snapped, a lucky escape indeed and highlights the importance of a thorough pre-flight check routine.
