Hire of Equipment |
|
The Area are the proud owners of both noise
measuring equipment and a frequency scanner and clubs within the Western Area
may hire either by arrangement with the Area Committee. |
|
|
|
Due to the value of the equipment a deposit is
required. The deposit would usually be in the form of a signed cheque which
will be held by the Area Treasurer. The deposit will be returned on return of
the equipment in good order. The deposit required for each item is £150
for the noise measuring equipment and £50 for the frequency
scanner |
|
|
|
Clubs wishing to use the equipment will be
required to collect and return the equipment from the current holder - details
from the Area Secretary.
There is no time limit for use of the equipment but clubs should return the
equipment within a reasonable time. This notice is to remind Area clubs of the
facility. |

Day 2010 |
 |

A brilliant day enjoyed by all. Many thanks to
the Bristol Radio Controlled Model Aircraft Club for hosting the event.
Hopefully we will hold more events next year.

dodgy handshakes - the accepted method of smoothing your way to a helicopter
'B' certificate. Pete is receiving the hallowed piece of orange paper (on
right) and John is dishing it out. Full report and pictures from the meeting
coming soon. Watch this space. |

There are no excuses for not showing off your
planes now that digital cameras are virtually free with petrol. Send them to me
in any format, we can even deal with good old fashioned prints. |

Product Review
If your latest gizmo was worth the 40 hours of
overtime you had to do to pay for it we all want to know. If you wished you
spent the money on chips instead we still want to know. |
