PANDAS model flying club are hosting a multirotor fly in at Pontefract Park, West Yorkshire on June 4th 2016. Start time 10am, finish approx 4:00pm. This is being run in conjunction with the clubs annual fun fly event. Besides sport multirotor flying from the heli patch, we will have a professional multirotor pilot to demonstrate and discuss this aspect of UAV’s. A small FPV course with air gates will be available. This is purely a fun event to encourage multi rotor (drone) flyers to come along and socialise with other interested pilots whilst promoting BMFA Drone Awareness.
If you have any interest in Multirotors or just curious about drones, come down and meet up with like minded individuals. Also why not bring any unused multirotor related items to sell. Free entry to the event and also to fly.
If you have no BMFA 'A', SAA or LMA achievement equivalent or any public liability insurance don't worry, 'Pandas' can supply a qualified pilot to stand alongside you under the BMFA Club insurance arrangements for visitors. We hope to also be able to offer a drone flight experience via a buddy box if things go to plan.
Directions.
The flying site is situated within Pontefract racecourse. Leave the M62 motorway at junction 32, head towards 'Pontefract' on Park Road. A few hundred metres along this road, just past the old 'Parkside Hotel', as the road splits round an island, you will see a gate on the right hand side. Direction markers will be placed to help locate the venue. Any questions email areappleyard@msn.com. For organisational purposes it would also be helpful if you could email your intention to attend.
'Sat Nav' location is 53º - 42' - 04.83" N, 1º - 19' - 34.14" W
