John Selby Memorial Fly-in

Saturday 1 August

9.30am start  

{Wind date Sunday 2 August} 

Event details:

Levin MAC flying site, Tararua Road. Coming from SH1 turn over the railway line opposite the Allied fuel pump.  Turn right when over railway line towards Mainfreight.  Gate to the flying site is about 50 metres past 80km sign.  Light green clubhouse and hay barn are visible from the road

Any RC Vintage Classes may be flown. Note, new rules now apply allowing any model design published up to 31 December 1975.   Precision is normally the most popular event.  We can help you if unsure of the basic rules – just sing out as this is all about having fun.  Sport flying of Vintage models and small field Vintage Free Flight also welcome. 

No entry fees or prizes.  This is a low key fun get together of like-minded Vintage fliers.

BBQ – There will be a sausage sizzle at lunchtime at purely nominal cost so bring a few coins.

Postponements – Any postponement decision will be advised to the Levin Vintage Email List and on the Levin Club website  Levin Model Aeroplane Club - Home (sporty.co.nz).  If you know anybody who wants to be added to this email list, send Stew your contact details at Flierstew@gmail.com 

Weather – If unsure on the day, consult the Levin MAC weather station (Ecowitt Weather) rather than making a call based on your local weather as Levin has a much better microclimate for model flying than anywhere else in the lower North Island west of the main divide.  Feel free to ring Stew if unsure.
