The 'Introduce yourself' Thread

Hi YellowPinkie will research where West Raynham is. I gotta do some photos some time but I find as soon as I photo them it seems like bad luck and they suffer a misfortune. However, I am flying at the mom an RC Models Sebach 342 30cc but with an OS 120 Fx two stroke. My other favorite is the Weston Models Obsession with a 160FX two stroke up front. Touch wood they are performing well. I have bought Slipstream Sebach 342 50cc and I am going to put an OS BG-X 35cc glow in it but that is really an autumn project. Do you fly too and may I ask what you specialise in as I am always interested?

Something I've always fancied but only ever spectated. From having RC cars as a kid I know how easy it is to get 'crossed up' when coming towards yourself - big problem when flying! It's one of those hobbies put aside for when there's more time / money (i.e. never!).

Would really like to get into helis, or jets but talk about getting in at the deep end!

Some of the electric powered 'planes seem to be accessible these days, would like to put a camera on and take some aerial photos.

I think West Raynham is a bit too far north for you, but lots of open space. I'll Google your 'planes to see what they are.

Good idea YP also I think you'll find some clips on YouTube too.

All replies treated with the utmost confidence.

As a close relative she could contact the RAF Air Historical Branch who are usually very helpful. If they do not have the information to hand they will direct her to whoever does.

This is were you or George's daughter need to look for a copy of his service record . They are now held at RAF Cranwell , the only down side being the thirty quid they have the cheek to charge you for them ;
