May Bank Holiday Flying

Came down to the field with a number of models but could not gain access. What a mess...

Very disappointing when we have kept members off ourselves as been far to soft.
The only plus is our field is ok and grass has been cut all over again. But can see access very limited :( do hope they roll or fill in the ruts as they are well deep 😤🤡😭 i think as it now soo bad its time to lay reinforced grass matting !? Not just for us the events field is getting used more and more every year someone should be accountable for the greed of hiring out the field when it was clearly too soft for cars not alone heavy plant!!
Was soo looking forward to seeing everyone this wend been a long winter 😤

Fully agree with you and it’s just down to greed & profit.
I will still be there Sunday and Mike says he’s coming to as the weather is just too good to miss the opportunity so I hope those who said the would be coming on the previous to this post will still come along with something to fly...
See you there.😀

I do hope so :) heard from one member who drove on today so maybe passable as parking on road not gonna be easy.

I'm coming down on Sunday afternoon. Who do we hold accountable for this outrage? Surely the woman in the cafe cannot just shrug it off.

I bet she does!!! Looking forward to seeing all the new toys :)

Hi Roy - we waited so long for the good weather and none of us used the club gate to preserve good access - then the funfair comes along and trashes not only one gate but two gate entrances - the small one is the clubs gate which is in our lease as our access to our car park and flying field and should not be destroyed like it has been - total disregard for the park as they can’t leave it like that!
Perhaps as someone else said we should paint out the F in funfair to make UNFAIR...

I went yesterday but the field was torn up and it was all fenced off so still haven't flown this year 😒

Are you going to park in the mud bath and walk your gear over? I bought a couple of foames but can't jump all my gear overe as I've been unwell but can probably manage a foame

Carry not jump sorry
