Additional notes:
PLEASE NOTE: There is a notam just ahead of us. I have got in contact with the organisers of the notam and have been told that it will not be a problem. I have replied to make sure the Jamming will not be as far. Will keep an eye on it and update here. Whilst this is all going on we will check for another close alternative if we can just in case. However so far it looks ok.

Usual Text:-

So once again a Sunday meet at the Barr Beacon.

As usual one of us will be there for 10am. The first one of us who is there will park in front of the blue binoculars and the other will park a few car widths away to make the chat area. Check the map so you get the right entrance.

Height restriction of 2.67m / 8.9ft use the left lane to avoid tyre damage as there are two lanes (right if you are coming out).

A great location for people who have any mobility issues as you can fly from your car and should it rain then you can sit in your car until it stops. No toilets on site but look on map for places.

Message the forum if you have difficulty.

Got a remote control car… bring it too. Off road one? Ask about the off road area for the car. (I have knackered my car at the big meet and it needs some urgent repair)

Not got a drone, thinking about it, plenty of drones to have a look at and lots of advice. Just join the chat area. Do not forget to bring a chair and sit with us when you are not flying. It's a social meet and a flying meet so some join us when not flying. Don't forget to come and see me when you get there (somewhere by the orange or blue car) so we can check you in.

Official end time is 2pm but when we have in the past been known to stay longer

Anyone left are free to stay and fly or chat for a bit. If you do let us know you got back safe.

P.S. if you see there is no space to sit with us and you have brought a chair. I will see you and we can move a car or move chairs around. No one will be left out.

See you there. As weather starts to get colder these meets will start to cease again. No one likes being cold and especially at this high up.
Always good to see you all.
(if you get there Early we have been told Asda opens at 10am)

Please do check the latest message on here before you start out to make sure all is good.

I like how he’s got fewer chins than me, or did you photograph his “good” side?

Thanks for your help again today Russ, much appreciated. Looking forward to another one already.

I can’t wait for Tim, Binay and Savagefpv to all be flying there together. It’ll make for good watching.

If you want to check out any other locations, give me a shout as I’d like to pop along with you for a nosey.
