SUMMARY:SAM 35 Retro Fest
DESCRIPTION:SAM 35 Galas include all types of flying\, including vintage RC\, control line\, free flight\, and both rubber and IC powered\, with an amazing selection of scale models\, as well as tethered cars.  At the Galas there are always a number of competitions to enter\, such as Spot Landing and Vintage Power Duration.  However\, there’s never any pressure to take part\, if you wish to just observe or have some relaxed sports flying on the main flying strip\, that’s just fine. Also\, coinciding with the SAM 35 Galas is the excellent BMFA Swapmeets\, held on the Sunday mornings.

SUMMARY:Scale World Champs team training and Scale Taster session. open to all
DESCRIPTION:We are holding a training session for any of the F4 Scale World Championship team who wish to attend and are coupling this with a ‘Scale Taster’ session which is open to all. There is no charge for this event. \nThe taster will allow opportunities to fly in front of judges and get feedback ( not obligatory and your model does not have to be scale\, though it is better if it is. ) \nFind about documentation requirement for scale classes which include a static element. \nDiscover the popular ‘flying only’ class \nMeet scale fliers\, including the this year’s World Champs team in both RC and Control Line and have a relaxed chat. \nIf you have an interest in scale\, but are nervous\, or unsure about having a go\, this could be the event for you. \nSorry the cafe will not be open.

SUMMARY:**CANCELLED** FxRES BMFA Buckminster – Challenge 6 from 10
DESCRIPTION:The contest is open to anyone with a model meeting the BMFA FxRES rules. If you’ve not flown FxRES before\, you will be very welcome as an entrant\, a spectator or a helper. \nThis is a one-day event on Saturday. \nFxRES is a competition class for 2m-span thermal soaring models constructed mainly from wood. Contests are a variant of the provisional FAI classes F3L (bungee launch) and F5L (electric launch) to a simplified and relaxed format. Bungee and electric launch gliders compete side by side but with separate score sheets. A competitor can fly F3L or F5L or both. The full FxRES rules in the BMFA Silent Flight Rule Book \nLeading up to the event\, information and updates will be posted on BARCS\nhttps://www.barcs.co.uk/forums/forum/102-fxres/
