Martyn K Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Hi all The BMFA NW Area in conjunction with Shropshire MFC will be holding a Scale Fly-in on the 22nd May at the Shropshire MFC flying site at Montford Bridge, just off the A5, west of Shrewsbury. This will be a BMFA Centenary Event. This will be a fun event. Spot prizes for 'Pilot's Pilot', Best in Show, Best Foamie plus others. We are also planning on a special prize for the best (flown) David Boddington Club 20 Scale Model as a tester to see if there is interest in this type of Scale Model. Numbers will be restricted to about 50 so you MUST pre-register either by email to me ([email protected]) or append your name below and I will maintain a published list. £5 Admission fee. NO Turbine powered aircraft (EDF is O.K). Well maintained grass strip. BBQ laid on. More information here : If this is successful, we are planning on making this an annual event. Hope to see you there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Note that some of the plans offer two versions, the spirit is that its the smaller 20-25 powered model that counts although there is no restriction on power plants electric conversions are welcome.
