MEET - New Years Day 2022 - Willington Power Station Towers

Yes, myself and Brendan will be there. We’ll try and get there for 11am.

I’ve got to try the 5", Gecko and the new freebie Roma F4 from Nick Burns there! We only got the 3D printed ones up last time we visited.

I’m good to go, may rock up a little earlier about 10.30, I to have got a couple of new buys to try out.

And the one I’m most excited about is my new chair, as sad as it is, a bit of comfort in my old age :rofl:

As I did back in 2020, I’ll contact them and clear our use of the airspace. The gent was very obliging back then so I not expecting any issues :grinning:

Not in this wind. It’ll rip my flaps off

Just leaving that there ;o)

It’s very easy to lose your flaps if you’re wearing a pink tutu!

Probably not this time but never say never :grin:

Depending on the wind, I’ll be there. Just been over the park for an hour with one of the P4s, and the wind was brisk to say the least!

Where’s the parking for this place? I’ve never been so haven’t a clue
