Hey up guys.
Once again the Bardney guys have contacted me and asked when we want to fly there again.
As I haven't been around for a while I'd though I'd put it to you guys to come up with a date.
I am back in UK 22nd May so the weekend after that would be good for me or again in October but don't let my dates influence what the majority may want.
Drop me a PM with interest as I can't always get on here so much these days.
The events organizer for the club is now Tyrone Baker and can be contacted on
[email protected]Cheers
Chris
I'm up for this, was great fun last time trekking across the countryside looking for an X8, and the burgers are top notch! :D I might even come before lunchtime this time :laugh:

Whoa, this thread took a quick boost.
Maybe time to throw a few dates around. Somewhere between 22 May - 9 June is when I am home but that shouldn't influence the dates.
I have sent a mail to the events organiser and Chief burger flipper Tyrone with these provisional dates.
I`m up for it, no wind and lots of sleep this time around though :)

Decent size boot :) can have a nice little sleep haha :)
erhm -
do we have a firm date yet?
Think Chris is going to liaise with the club to get a date
It's this year !
How does the 1st/2nd June or 8th/9th grab everyone?
Then I'll put it to the Events organiser at Bardney.
either or is fine with me Chris ;)
I can make the 1st/2nd June but not the next weekend.
Either is fine by me too.
1 hotdog & 1 burger please.
I'm fine for either too, only 10 weeks away :D

5x Hotdogs and 2 x Burgers for my tribe please :laugh: :laugh:

O AND BROWN SAUCE HE SAYS FROM A FAR
All fine with me!

http://tinyurl.com/d8botf3 (http://tinyurl.com/d8botf3)

Keukpa
Keukpa surely you're going to be attending for more than an hour :laugh:

Well thats me sorted, whats the rest of you having :laugh: :laugh:
Think the rest of are going to be invited to Keupa's GF's place - aren't we ??
I'll bring a ticket machine :laugh:
I'll collect the money.
LOLz thanks! hahaha
Keukpa
Two burgers please and abit of red sauce ;)
Think I'll bring some chargrill steaks and salad cream :D
I should be able to make either weekend
bit early to confirm, but i should be able to get.
Ok I've heard back from Bardney's events organiser today and the 1st of june is free but they have a "warbirds" day on the Sunday (2nd). I can vouch for that being a very good day if anyone wanted to attend that.
FPV flying wouldn't be compatible with that but maybe a 1 day event on the Saturday would get more of us there.
THOUGHTS?
I'm up for it
Suits me, as I would only attend for one day, even if it was a two day event.
June - umhh - Ice-cream van maybe ??
OH yea good call, must remember a cap - my head was burnt to a crisp last time!!
Rudolph, the red-nosed ......
Who am I kidding, it was just because I was too close to the BBQ for so long heh
Count me in!
Yeah a 1 day event would mean we arnt passing ship in the night, I`m game :)
I would prefer a 2 day meeting if at all possible.
Sounds cool!
Cya there!
Liam
1 day is enough for me but I might be tempted to come to that warbirds event too if it's open to the public, love owt like that.
" 1 day"
It only takes me less than half a day to either crash beyond immediate repair and / or discover I've forgotten some important component - like the transmitter !
Having had 3x2 day meetings so far at Bardney I don't think wish she over step our welcome. So far they have been very welcoming and allow us to fly virtually (no pun intended) when we want. This is why this time they and I thought it would be nice to combine one event of ours and one event of theirs in the same weekend. Any of you would be welcome to attend the warbirds day as long as you have a warbird to fly and, as it is their event, you must have BMFA insurance and an A Certificate to fly solo.
Before anyone asks, the FPV forum guys are allowed to fly on FPVUK insurance and without buddy leads during our planned events.
Nothing is set in stone yet as it has to go to BFMC Committee before I can go firm on the date but looking good.
The only warbird i own is our lass
Thanks Chris

So, just to confirm....to attend this, we MUST have insurance?
Keukpa
Ok The Bardney Flyers Club have now confirmed a date for our invite so those that want to attend can start making their sarnies.
If anyone needs directions please let me know as those that have been before will tell you, it is not over easy to find.
1st of June it is for 1 day only event.
As before I have plenty of info on B&B's, hotels and campsites if required so let me know.

darhm :( is that the trip with school :L ? educational ?
Bad news guys from Bardney Club.
The warbirds event scheduled for the 2nd of June has been extended to include the 1st as well so the FPV meet has had to be postponed/cancelled.
Sorry about this but it's beyond my control.
I will keep you posted if I get offered alternate date(s)
Ah well can't be helped - ANYONE who still fancies flying on this date, I'd still be up for finding a random location somewhere - I've booked the time off on a Day Pass from the wife, and I'm damned if I'm giving it up lol
Fine idea Steve, I'll come as well.

I too have a Day Pass I don't want to cancel - could we have a 'random' location reasonably close to Bardney ? That way we'll all have a similar distance to travel as if going to Bardney.
Could we contact Coyote's nearby X8 finder farmer ?
I'm out tonight having a beer and grub with the farmer who's fields me, Coyote and Dakarsg have been flying at recently so am going to ask him about this, a lot will depend on what crops he is growing as it's all arable farming except for the one field right at the back of the main house.
The other farm a few miles away had sheep in the field all of last year so was good for flying, the farmer there is one of Dakarsg's contacts so we'd need to get Dakarsg (Stu) to do the asking on that one, that may be the better spot in June.

From the Members Map I assume you are talking of fields way North of Bardney ??
I am also looking at alternate venues around the area.
Steve

Unfortunately yes.... when you mentioned Coyote I thought you meant up this direction..... now realise you meant when his X8 went walkabout down at Bardney last time ;D

I have booked the weekend off , so also interested in an alternate venue.

Err Yes - I didn't make myself very clear - did I ??
Yes meant the Coyote emergency landing field near Bardney from last time when he ran out of electricity - thought that may be the only contact we might have in that area.
I don't think it was a farmer who found Coyote's X8 - the guy I got it off when I picked it up said he'd found it while he was out on a nature walk with his kids in one of the fields :laugh:
Nice bloke but I don't think he was a farmer like I say, so not much use in sourcing land.
Oh well - I tried !
Yeah get yourselves up our neck of the woods, both sites are excellent to fly from :)
Rather too far to travel and it's cold enough down here without going up to the frozen 'North' !!

Anything happening ?? Weekend pass soon due to expire unless booking details filled in !!!
Well a lot of us are going to the Northern meet on 28th so I imagine something might get arranged there?
Let me know if an alternative place has been decided!
I'll chat to most of you on the 28th anyways!
Keukpa
Hey guys did anything get re organised for this meet?
