Jet Sunday 2007

 

 

A brilliant day.......  the last 'Non Public' event this year in readiness for a full program of public two day events in 2008.

 

I understand though it was hard to dodge the crowds on the runway.

 

The radio frequency table is now coming along, but I still need the rest of you to let me know yours. Please email me with all of the frequencies that you use, or intend to use at Hucknall. This will assist you in the purchase of crystals in the future, and newcomers can see the free channels, and avoid clashes.   Let me know if now have 2.4gig radio, and remember to paint a cloths peg black and mark it with your name for the peg board.  

If anyone spots a date worthy of inclusion on our web pages, please let me know.... I don't have the time to trawl through the pages of magazines and other web sites myself.    Thanks

To those of you who have only just found us... Hi. 

We will continue to develop this site for radio control model aircraft enthusiasts in the Nottingham area. 

Our flying home enjoys a tarmac runway to die for. On cross wind days, a lot of our aircraft can take off at right angles to the runway... it is that wide (although landing is more of a trial). Our airfield is currently the home to the famous Rolls-Royce aero engine manufacturer, and we have close links with the company.  This web site uses the official RR web site colours too.

These pages serve both club members, and anyone that may stumble across it from wherever they may reside. Club events including subsequent photographs and reports will be posted when appropriate. Tips that we have discovered, and links to other useful sites will can easily accessed from here, making it a first point of call for all of your flying needs.

This Web site will comply with recognised standards, and so is best viewed using 'Internet Explorer' at a screen resolution of 1024x768. This will allow more of the text to be read on one page before you need to scroll down. If you press the [F11] button, the annoying top menus, and the irrelevant bottom text will not be shown. Just press [F11] again to return to normal viewing. To navigate the pages, I have simplified the grey menu bar on the left to include only "Top level" subjects. Each item can be used to drill down to a more detailed menu if the subject matter becomes larger than a page full, or where splitting it is easier to navigate.

Under-lined text on any page will be a link to some other page, or initiate another task.  Hover your mouse over this text to read where the link will take you (at the bottom of the page). Click on the text and you will be taken to that page or link. Updated page will be highlighted by a icon. If I have emailed you to let you know of web page updates, but you cannot see the changes on your computer, press your [F5] button to refresh your browser. Your computer may be storing out of date pages to speed up its web browsing. Check those settings to ensure that always get up to date web pages.

Please email me with any comments or articles for inclusion on these pages. You will of course be credited for your work (if you wish) even if you are not a club member. There is no reason why you should not have your say or make a contribution to this site. 

Thanks for the comments already received about these new pages and the layout of the same. I will listen to adverse comments too. 

Why not make this site one of your bookmarked favorites, and pop back for another look soon.   Enjoy.............
