Ferndown Fete Airshow 2019

Ferndown Fete on the Field 2019 was bigger than ever this year

Again Wimborne MAC was asked to support this annual event with static and model flying displays.  With the gratefully accepted help and support from club members we had a good static display and flying displays from various types of aricraft the likes of sebart Wind 110's, Super Chipmunk, B25 Mitchell with Spitfire escort and a number of Korean War 50's  MIG versus F86 Sabres EDF jet flight.

All this on the lower field meanwhile in the main arena club  members had an Information Centre, Flight Simulator and more static displays.  Here members of the public can use the flight sim and ask questions about our club and hobby.

Slope Soaring - January 2019

Unusually for this time of year the temperature was quite mild at 10 degrees C.  Wind was forecast as 18 mph to 35 mph WNW so a few of us grabbed the chance for a bit of slope soaring with flying wings and gliders.  The wind  was really winding up around midday so when Mike chose to fly he used his scratch built Phase 5 a Chris Foss design from quite a few years ago. The Phase 5 has fully symmetrical wing profiles so is quite happy with wild winds.  An hour or so later the wind started to ease off so then Mike chose to fly his Orcrist, The Orcrist design is heavily influenced by the French 'Excalibur' design but uses a traditional wooden fuselage and foam wings. .Scratch built although this was in reality a re-maiden as earlier in the week it was involved in a collision with a Wild Thing. However, all repaired and now to find out if it still flies well. It does!
