We will have trainer planes and "buddy box systems" so that all new flyers can try their hand at flying model planes. We will have engine powered and electric power trainer planes (high wing Cessna type) with wings spans of approximately 1.5 metres. An instructor will take off and allow the pupil to control the plane in the air - the buddy box system allows the instructor to take control of the plane at any time if the pupil gets into any "situations"

We are always looking for new members. Special rates on membership for those that join on the day. Please get in touch with the club if you require further information and directions to the flying site which is located in Hartfield approx. 7 miles from Tunbridge Wells.

Please note that children are welcome to fly and must be supervised whilst at the site by a parent or guardian.
