Sloping Off - December 2001

Competition News

by the Competition Secretary, Gordon Coy

Forthcoming Competitions and Funflys
There are no specific competitions arranged for the foreseeable future although there may be ad hoc ones on the slopes depending upon the weather and members present. There will however be an opportunity for Free Flight at Oakmead School on 22nd March and in Stanpit Hall on 12th April, so come with your models if keen.

The indoor R/C brigade seems to be going from strength to strength and the time seems to have arrived for a few simple events to be tried out, such as limbo and carrier deck tasks.

Construction and Finish Trophy
Once again Lionel Phillips assisted by John Campkin will be judging models throughout the year. If you intend bringing a model to a club night for judging (particularly if it is large), I suggest you contact Lionel to make sure he will be present. Also make sure he knows that you would like it looked over. Generally the model should be brought along sometime during construction and again when it is completed.
