Each "new" message below is dated and will be
removed after a month.
6th February Glad to say the club web site can now be
got at via the original peterboroughmfc.org as well as the new .co.uk suffix.
The site is being hosted by a different company. The only entertaining part
about the whole frustrating business was the renewal date "December 30th 1899"
- see 30th January below.
5th February There is the Old Warden Swapmeet next
Sunday, 12th February, click
for their advert.
3rd February See the January "Sticks & Tissue"
from James Parry at
The
Raynes Park MAC for another excellent mixture of words and
photographs.
2nd February This web site is using
www.peterboroughmfc.co.uk, not the normal .org
suffix. The problems from 30th January continue.....
1st February In the hassle caused by the hosting
problem I forgot to thank Mick for the latest set of front page photographs. An
excellent selection from the BMFA Power Nationals 2011
31st January Ian has finished the second
installment of his build log for a Steve Bage EDF MIG17 Click here for a link to the plans.
30th January The web site has not been available since
last Saturday. It was renewal time with the company that does the "hosting".
Unfortunately something went seriously wrong with their date system and it is
taking some time to resolve the problem. At one stage I wondered if
they were going to invoice us from 1899 until the present, a cost of about
£2680......
26th January For those of you who don't get the
regular Vulcan to the Sky e-mails here are some links
to clips of the Vulcan flying. Also a short piece about the Victor which had
its first flight 60 years ago on 24th December 2011.
21st January No further updates until
Thursday......
Another set of front page photographs from Mick Page, this set
from last September and Flying Aces but with an
extra at number
9.
20th January Topco Kits - also
includes a laser cutting service from your own drawings rather than a computer
CAD file.

16th January Paul and Ralph Bradley's Model Airplane Page from Jackson,

14th January Teds front page photographs of the post
Christmas flying session have been on show for two weeks. It is now back to
Micks selection of Ferry Meadows photgraphs from last Summer, which only had a
weeks show. Thanks to both of them for the photographs.
12th January We don't get much of a chance to see
"Power Scale Soaring" on this side of the country, you need a big hill to
support this type of model.
PSSA Online web site have a particularly good report of the The
Lleyn MAC PSSA Fly-In - 13th/14th August 2011, with an interesting video as
well.

10th January Thanks to John Stennard who writes
the excellent "Watts under the Roof" and "Small Thrust" pages in Q&EFI for
supplying the Airbus video link, which has a lot more to do with Teds fish link
than you would initially think..... |
