firstly, a very belated happy new year to all and sundry (especially sundry!), hope all goes well for everyone in 2011.
i checked the retroplane site just now and saw that the registration is open. seeing as this reg will fill up quite quickly, i would advise anyone interested in going to get themselves reg'd soon.
i'm working on a manuel crested wren, 3m span and coming along nicely. hope to have photos soon. gb

Don't t hink anybody from the North is going.
Nobody has, at this stage, a completed model, (with the exception of Andrew Wallace who has a Flair K8).

On top of that I'm a Civil (Me, never civil! :lol: ) Servant and we have a two year pay freeze, so money is pretty tight :x

I have registered myself for Retroplane, so I'm hoping to go. At the moment my plan is to go to England for some Holidays and hop across the channel for Retroplane while there. Haven't booked anything yet.

Hi Lads.
Unfortuntily I won't be going to Retroplane this year  :(  :(  :( . Some things have come recently and I can't go as a result. I was looking forward to it.
Hopefully next year.
