Hi everyone,
My name is Justin and I came down to the field to have a look today, no one there but it looks like a pretty decent space to fly. Lived in hills area my whole life and only just discovered the field last night... I've dabbled in rc for most of my life and fly a few little ducted fan foamies on occasion. I'm also interested in heli's and as it happens just picked up a raptor 50 and want to learn how to fly it (properly!) I'll definitely come down again on a weekend and say hi.

Hi All,
I've been down to the field a couple of times now. Haven't flown for years, since I was a kid but am keen to dust of the skills and start again. Everything has of course changed completely.
I have been chatting to Ron and others - have invested in a Spektrum DX6i and a Bixler 2, since the consensus around the web seems to be that its very forgiving for beginners.
I'll bring a membership form next weekend.
Other than that, anyone interested in checking over the plane, and taking it for a trim flight to get things rolling in a couple weeks?
Iain. (And Annabel & Isabella - whom I hope don't bother people to much, but love to come and watch).

Good evening all
My name is Brett I stay in kellyville.
I have taken a break for about 12 months now from flying competitive rc helicopters at f3c level.
I also had my own instructors school in South Africa before I moved to Australia.
Would I be allowed to come down to the field on a weekend and meet everybody. I am currently in the process of selling all my rc car racing equipment to obtain a helicopter again.
What sort of time would be good to come down and see the club
Thanks guys

Hi All,
Am new to R C Aircraft, but not to flying. I have been flying in different forms for the last 30 odd years, recently Grounded by She who must be obeyed! My grounding followed breaking my back in an accident whilst landing my Paraglider, resulting in 6 months in Royal North Shore Spinal Unit followed by a further 6 months in Rehab before recommencing work. R C Aircraft are my way to fly again! The Bug is still biting and VERY active!!!!!!

Hello all,
Im Dave and was lucky to visit the airfield today. Meet a few people including Wayne, who with a few others have all the right advise. And thanks to Wayne for the trainer flight.
About me. I just left the Royal Australian Navy after 31 years. I work in the Marine Engineering field with my last class of ship the ANZAC Frigate and have had the chance to live all over Australia. I currently work as a sole trader, selling myself back to the Navy on various engineering projects, at Garden Island.
Well there be more to tell about me, but will save that for another time.
I would like thank the guys I meet today for all the advise and general chat. So thanks Wayne, Chris, Jason and others. (Too many names to remember)
Thanks guys, look forward to another visit soon.
Dave

Thank You
Thank you to All, whom without, today I would not have gotten my Bixler built. This Aircraft was labelled and purchased as Ready to Fly, but as a rank beginner I was lost. Tonight after lots of advise and assistance She is on the bench just awaiting the glue to cure.
Kevin, I have both your table and a screw driver, will deliver in the morning.
Wayne, Thank you for my first flight into RC!!
