I, and 3 others, had a fly on Wednesday, before Thursdays rain. I am not sure if the boys got down to mow today but the field was in "reasonable" condition, considering the weather. As it is suppos...

Well it's raining at Northmead. I won't be opening up, might try later in the day otherwise tomorrow if it doesn't improve.

Don't worry mate, it will still be here when you get back, maybe underwater but still here :)

I think you should fly an Ugly Stick......the name says it all lol (couldn't resist a dig)

I'm feeling sick

It was discussed that every 20 mins or so the Quads have a run. Not sure how long they normally last but if your talking races then I would suggest 5 minutes? give or take. This would still give fixed...

OMG they are worried about Bird Strikes but don't care that just about every household has guns !!! Typical bloody Yanks

Has anybody been to the field late this week. Wondering what the ground is like after the rain we've had?

Would be great but I've been among 5 Trojans at once in the air and it was like sudden death :)

The strip will be open for the 4 days, however, the weather is not looking that good for Friday & Saturday. Watch this space.

Weather permitting, I will open up the field at about 9am.

Hi Spook, As Secretary, I will have applications with me next Saturday if you can make it, weather permitting of course.

Who knew you had so many planes, we only ever saw 3 of them. Well done Wayne, hope you're enjoying life in the South. Myself and David (from Canberra) are hoping to get down your way in April sometime...

Looks like it's going to be a great weekend for flying, light winds, sunny weather. I will be there about 9am.

personally, I'd use a Paint Ball Gun......just sayin' :)

The weather for Saturday and Sunday is not good (Willy Weather), wind (70% chance) & rain. Monday is looking better, however, as RC is classed as a sport and according to Govt. guidelines, no sport...

The South will rise again !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Looking at great weather for Saturday. Light winds, sunshine although some early morning fog. I will be opening up by 9am.

Yes mate [hr] I just emailed the guy thanking him for his help and also called Russell to let him know. If Steve brings it down on Saturday and Wayne's not there could anyone please put it in the f...

Oops got my little fat guys mixed up :)

Can the Club afford one???? :):)

Thought I would pop down the field to check water levels.....I left quickly

Hi Guys, Popped down the field for a check up. VERY soggy throughout the whole area. Still puddles on the roadway in and runway. Lots of rubbish laying around. So NO DRIVING IN till a Committee...

I took a walk onto the field at lunch time today and the ground is extremely soggy underfoot apart from the usual lakes we normally get. My advice is NO DRIVING IN, and hand launch planes plus heli...

I went down this morning and turned the sign around about no driving in, I also put up a log barrier in case people didn't notice the sign. Greg G turned up to fly, he was happy to walk in.

We have to hold a Annual General Meeting once a year. It's main purpose is to elect a new Committee, that being President, Vice president, Secretary, Treasurer and 2 Committee Members. It is usually ...

Tomorrow the field will be open for Drive in. Please stay close to the right hand side.

Hopefully you all have received my email about the change in Venue. Now on at Toongabbie Sports & Bowling Club 12 Station Road, Toongabbie 11am Sunday 19th June, 2016. Tell Reception yo...

Hi Bob Great that you made contact. So the Forum doesn't get too clogged with new Posts, can we please keep all "like" posts together. Much appreciated.

All paid tonight, apologies but have been away for 3 weeks with limited computer access.

Hi Guys All members, and potential members. Fees have to be paid by this weekend. Failure to have them lodged in the Clubs Bank Account by this weekend will mean that you CANNOT fly at our field af...

Just had a call from Russell Harvey, who was working near the field, and reported that it was covered in water. As we are due for more rain for the rest of the week I would suggest that flying this we...

Inverted on the Power Lines??????????

Looks like a great weekend for flying. Wind about 22kph at 10am Saturday, dropping away after that. Sunday looks even better.

Thanks Peter, I'll be there early so I;ll put up the sign.

Just been down to the field and turned the "No Vehicles past this point" sign around. The field looks good but is definitely soggy, thanks to the Mowing Team.

It was disappointing to find out today that after my efforts of going to the field early yesterday to turn the sign around, and making a large cardboard sign saying " WALK IN ONLY" that it was ignored...

I'll be there as well. Weather looks crap for next week, suggest get out while you can

I am hoping some of you saw the pics posted by Babar on our Facebook site. The entrance lane is under water so I am suggesting the field is the same, if not, very soggy. Therefore there will be NO ...
