Hi guys

Any thoughts on coming down to Kerry for a fly-in?

What about a weekend somewhere in the middle of August - how would that suit?

Hi Chris, great Idea !
I'm in for a full week end !

Anyone else before we have a look at dates ?
Education is important, but flying RC planes and gliders is importanter!

I don't have a direct line of comms to the Cork guys, so I don't really know what to do.  

If this is the general level of interest, looks like its just me, Brian, Ron and maybe Fred will get together for a fly!  I think that qualifies more as a road trip?

Due to the massive scale of interest in this land-mark event, and the limited physical size of Co. Kerry, we are now allocating a fixed number of places on a first-come, first-served basis.

Please post your application forms, duly completed, to.........

 :!:  :!: lol

But no, seriously, anyone want to join us on 25/26 August in windy Kerry for an informal slope glide-in?

  :D Chris

Hiya Chris. Would love to come along but I'm out of the country for August.
Will have to do it next time.
I'll mail one of the guys from Cork and let them know.

Pity you can't make it, Joe.

We'll definitely do it again!

Please do contact some of the Cork guys, if you would!  Do you still have my mobile number - you can pass it on, no probs?

Thanks

 :D Chris

Not sure what I'll be going in August. But I don't think I'll be able to make it either  :(

Hi Ralph, perhaps we should look at a new date to accomodate the Cork guys, as well as maybe Joe?

Any ideas?  Brian Coombes has a limited schedule, I was trying to accomodate him - waddya think Brian?

The problem with a fixed venue is the weather.  We may need to keep it open to allow for different wind directions, but establish a fixed meeting point?

I haven't had any conlcusive response yet from RTE about Mullghanish, which has the potential to work in most wind directions, and is closer to most of the rest of the Country (maybe not our friends in Sligo? :lol:).  No matter, if that doesn't work we have some great alternatives lined up!
