A gorgeous late August day, light breezes, a barbeque and a group of helicopter enthusiasts. What more could you want from a days flying?

Timed hover, knock the bottle, limbo and slalom were all popular events. But the highlight of the day had to be the drag racing won by our club chairman (fix) Graham Atkins and his Raptor 60 after a close fly off with Dave Mackey and his JR Vigor.

Thanks to John and Viv for organising the day and taking lots of stick!!
