Good News!

The farmer has given us a date to resume flying.

We can start flying again on Saturday 21st May 2011.

Please remember that we are not allowed to drive down to the strip for off-loading. We are only allowed to park in the field.

Two members have negotiated with the farmer to drive down to the strip due to disability. If you see them doing so, please do not follow their example. The rest of the membership MUST NOT drive down the field.

Happy flying!

Annual stoppage of flying at Woolaston for lambing

The annual flying stoppage for the lambing season has been announced by the farmer.

The last day of flying at the Woolaston site will be Friday 8th April 2011 until further notice.

We apologise for the relatively short notice, but the recent spell of mild, dry weather has caused a sudden flurry of births and we must stop flying as a result.

FRMC Website - Version 2!

Welcome to version 2 of the website.

The old website was looking rather dated and was difficult to maintain as it was very disorganised 'under the hood'.

This new version is intended to be easier to use, more concise in content, a lot easier to maintain for your humble administrator and quite a lot cooler to look at!

This site had been tested with most of the big name browsers but if you have any issues or spot any broken links etc, please forward any comments to mail@frmc.org.uk
