This Sunday (1st April – no joke!) the newly appointed UK F3N Team met up at a nice facility near Tamworth, in order to put in some practice towards our efforts for the European Championships in Germany later this year.

Scallywag Models gave the Team exclusive use of their field and facilities for the entire day, and we made the most of a sun scorched Sunday.

Duncan Osbourn, Stuart Mott and myself (Rob Turnbull) were all present, and we all helped each other with practicing our set manoeuvres to make sure we are all flying them correctly. There’s nothing worse than practicing something only to find out you’ve been practicing it wrong!!

With such a full calendar of events going on this year, it is proving difficult to get our team together to practice together and make sure everything is moving in the right direction. We would like to do well on the European stage, and hopefully days like yesterday will be a massive help to us all.

The weather was superb all day long, and after several hours of flying, we all finished the day a little scorched by the sun.

I think we all took something good away from the day, and can continue to practice on our own, knowing that we are working on the right manoeuvres, being flown the right way.

Onwards and upwards Team GB F3N!

Here are a few photos from the day – mainly of my Logo which was superb!
