Lunchtime saw Ian Mortimer again take on the role of chief burger burner and the barbecue was fired up and a good day was had by all...... well almost, some of the models got a little battered, some more than others. Competitions were run throughout the day for spot landings, deadstick endurance and some touch and goes.
This photo shows the model pit area complete with BOG's auditorium...... just look at that sky.
This shot shows the transmitter area or pound and pegboard, a must for safe flying.
This action shot!!! shows the BOG's auditorium ..... Kind of reminds you of Brighton sea front don't it? Oh if you're not sure what BOG's stands for........ it's boring old git's but don't tell them I said so.
Barbeque area complete with wives in waiting...... why is it that men always do the cooking on the barby?
Chas Sugg brought his own private airforce to the all-day including a fine model of a Sopwith Dove..... took him best part of the day to assemble it.
Chas and the Sopwith Dove, the Dove was a civilian version of the Pup. See club models for more pics.
Our club chairman Ian Fulcher about to fly his Extra 300s carried out to the line by John Gibson.
Not everyone had a smooth running day..... seen here is Roy Shelley fixing his Hurricane. Roy had more than his fair share of problems throughout the day.
That's all for this years July all-day.
