Good evening all,
I'm not a pilot of full size aircraft, but an aero modeller in the UK. I am interested in speaking with people who have private airstrips who might be interested in hiring the space for a few weekends a year for aero modelling. We are a small group of guys of ages from 22-72 from all over the UK who are looking for somewhere to race model aircraft. If you can help, or know someone who might, I'd love to chat about how we can help each other as we currently have nowhere to fly our models. We normally have a Saturday for practice/setup and Sunday for racing and pay the land owner for the privilege. Generally speaking, a flight is about 70 seconds under power and between 6-10 minutes between flights, so our airtime is actually rather short.
Sorry for the rather abrupt introduction to the forum.
Chris
