Safe, festive flying to you and your families!

Screen Shot 2017 06 01 at 2.06.00 pm

Merry Christmas to all our members! Once again, the festive season is upon us, time to spend with family and friends. Many of our member clubs will have already held or are about to hold their annual Christmas functions and I suspect many ‘war’ stories will be told. The New Year will bring to us all new challenges, but I hope 2019 will be prosperous to us all.

Interview with David Law on his F4C team winning gold at the Scale World Championship 2018 in Switzerland

scaleworld image2

What were some of your highlights from the World Championship?

The personal highlights for me had to be the F4C team securing a gold medal and standing on the podium with that gold medal around your neck singing the National anthem. Also, when my team mates came running up to me, including my wife (Melissa, who was also the team manager) with tears in their eyes telling me we had secured gold! After the sacrifices made by some of the F4C team over the years the gold was well earned. It was also great to have Peter Goff and Greg Lepp getting in the top ten at their first F4H world champs.
