Scale Helicopter event at Gumley on 18th June 2022.

A selection of pictures by Matt Chamberlain of our Scale Helicopter event at LMAC on Saturday 18th June 2022. A big thanks to LMAC member and organiser Rob McSkimming for putting on the event. To the pilots who attended and demonstrated their works of art and to everyone else who assisted - including a special shout-out to Howard and Rhyan Murphy for making the flying site look so nice as always!

A special thanks to Dave Thomas for his kind donation to the Leicester Model Aero Club.

Recently Dave Thomas who lives on a canal-long boat contacted the club and generously offered his models to the club for use by our members.  A big thank you to Dave from the club.  We will ensure that the models are put to good use and used as part of training new members where possible.
