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.....

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.Renewal
At one stage I wondered if they were going to invoice us from 1899 until the present, a cost of about £2680......


26th 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.


Airbus

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.....

Swimmer

8th January
Old School Model Aeroplane Factory, doesn't seem to have a web page of its own but works through Ebay. Several Vic Smeed models as well as George Fullers Zoot Suit.


Intended as a reminder of what the web page has been showing over a period longer than a month. This means that links to ephemeral items might be broken.
