It's amazing when you get feedback information from the most unusual places and this is regards our clubs

EDUCATION OFFICER’S REPORT October 2012: 

(David Nichols).

Back in July this year I flew over to England to catch up with my folks and check out as many aviation things as I could. Whilst there I was able to attend a well organised, and in many ways spectacular model flying display. It was hosted by the Bartons Point Model Flying Club which is close to Sheerness. They made me feel very welcome. We discussed what I am trying to do with model aircraft education in Victoria down under and how keen I was to find out how they go about all model flying activities. After that I was given a pass to freely walk around the pits, stand out on the flight line if I wished and take photographs at will, which of course I did. 
 This was a two day event which was not only well organized but run close to perfection, yet in a fairly relaxed way. On the advertising bill there was mention of a lunch time try and fly which was duly held. Any member of the public could have a fly by putting their hand up. The underlying emphasis though was directed towards the young and the way they actioned that was of great interest to me. The photo gives you some idea. 

I also contacted the BMFA [British Model Flying Association] and found out some very interesting things about their membership and the way they further model flight education.
