Have come together again to give flyers from the West Midlands and the
UK
one of the best Fly Ins this year.
All flyers visitors and
families are welcome and admission to the field is free. There will be a BBQ and
entertainment on Friday/Saturday night for our pilots, campers, volunteers and
guests.
See last years event
Campers are welcome,
we ask for a donation and we request you
please book ahead of time to guarantee a space. All traders are welcome, again
we request that you let us know you are coming.
If you intend to fly please
see some of our conditions below.
We expect a number of
Traders to
attend in addition to YT International.
(NB. If you’re a
camper or trader please call to book your pitch). or use
More details:
Location postcode for Sat-Navs etc: WS9 0QQ
see here
The "Fly-In" entrance will
be from Bosty Lane.
See Locations for
other links and more maps etc.
Jets are welcome.
The strip will be a long grass runway and will be close mowed regularly before the
show. We have a shiny new club mower so the strip
should be in tip top short cut condition. Anyone wishing to help with this contact Pete Davis or Jez
(see below).
Flying will start 10am
Sat/Sun, following the pilots briefing at 9.45am. The end of flying will
depend on the weather, but it should be 5pm. This maybe subject to change.
There
will be a series of prizes for best pilots etc.
Camping/caravanning will be allowed on site after 5pm on Friday. On arrival see
a Marshall or the Event Director to direct you to your pitch. We will be asking
for a donation.
Trade is welcome and we have a
number pencilled in already.
Conditions:
ANYTHING MAY FLY not just YT
models. This includes Electric and IC, large or small. ANY MAKE of model that is RC may
fly on 35MHz or 2.4GHz. All planes must have been test flown before and pilots
will have to confirm all planes flown by them have sound structural & electrical
integrity.
Pilots must have a minimum
of BMFA 'A' cert. (or higher) to fly solo and a current BMFA insurance
certificate. (Evidence will be requested on booking in). All transmitters are to
be booked in at transmitter control - £3 per frequency or £3 2.4Ghz per
transmitter.
Although we have a first come first served
policy for best caravan pitch there should be more than enough space to
accommodate trade and campers. It would be helpful
to us if you could pre book your stay overnight/weekend and booking
a place prior to arriving will guarantee you a space (we would hate to have to
turn you away if we get too many campers).
Flying will be allowed
after the show has been set up on the Friday from the show strip. NOTE:
permission to fly needs to be granted by the acting Flight Line Marshal or Event
Director. Please contact Pete Davis For set up Details.07934

If the weather requires us
to cancel or abandon the event a note will be posted on this web site. So please
visit here or call us for an up date.

Quote from YT:-
"it is an open fly in,
sponsored by YT,
Naturally, we hope many YT models, past and present will be turning
up, but it is NOT limited to our models only, we will be doing plenty
of display flying with YT products, and the latest kits will be on show, all
weekend camping will be available, for a donation, and there is space-a-plenty,
Refreshments will be available, and guest pilots will be invited for
demos, etc, we are hoping this will be a well attended event, only
monetary contribution, will be on registering your tranny, ALL this
money will be going to club funds, for they will be bending over
backwards, to make the event a success, SPECTATORS ARE WELCOME"
