FNG - Darlington

Hello everyone, im sure anyone who’s seen a Vietnam war film will understand FNG and on this occasion its me.
Just got my first drone and im loving it, unfortunately limited flying due to the lockdown.
Your chats have been very informative and have helped me make my decisions.
I live in Darlington and was wondering if anyone had ideas where to fly legally.
Im looking forward to the old steel mills at Redcar, anyone been there.

Thanks
Chris

Welcome to GADC new guy ;o)

Check out our very own DroneScene for member added places to fly.

Ive seen some youtube of the old steel mills and its on my list once we can travel a bit further, I’m near Selby, so not a million miles away from Darlo

Just down the road. im originally from that neck of the woods.

Thanks Chris, BTW what do you do for a living

Did the milk (obviously) on and off for about 20 years and lots of stuff in between. Been working in Student (Uni) Welfare for the last 16 years.

Welcome. I drove taxis in Darlo for 5 years. Live near Bishop Auckland, loads of great places to fly in this neck of the woods. Don’t fly very often, but never been challenged…

Thanks Ernie, When these restrictions are eased and I have more experience we should meet up.
Strange the first 2 people i meet here are Ernie and the Milkman.
Chris.
