Went there yesterday.

Tramway museum was open. Drove up and parked next to the gate to the quarry. Went in under the gate.

Flew all day, no issues. Awesome location.

Just please don’t fly over the museum and keep clear of the gates.

Also beware of people on top of the cliff. Don’t bother them either.

Tell him minimum wage is now £12.21 / hr and fuel is £1.40 / ltr.

106 miles
2.25 hrs x £12.21 = £27.48

Plus fuel -
Based on 40mpg that’s £18.00

£45.48 each way.

So you’d expect at least a McD’s double sausage & egg breakfast meal :rofl::rofl::rofl:

Due to the low numbers, I think we should defer this meet for an alternate date.

Those who have said “yes” will be travelling a reason distance and if there’s on a small number, you may be disappointed.

Let me know.

I’ll find somewhere local to fly on my lonesome. :downcast_face_with_sweat:

Anyone else still attending?

Happy to set up a new poll if needs be
