We had a great weekend at Elvington, so massive thanks to Martin-Ian and the other EJF members for putting on the event. Local club member Phil travelled up for the weekend with his CARF Joker and managed more jet flights that he has flown the rest of this year!
It was good to be able to use this excellent site to put some more flights on the CARF Bolt!

We all hope 2021 is a more normal year and we can meet up again at this historic venue.

True that. I had 6 flights in total which easily exceeds all Joker flights combined for the preceding part of the year. Too many models and too little time, plus I'm returning to jet modelling after a big gap in aero modelling in general and so I'm slowly trying to re-establish my 'grove'. I've been to two other turbine events this year where on arrival the prevailing conditions have just kept us on the ground (the end of September meeting at Buckminster being one of them!). Elvington is just an absolutely amazing place and I can't think of many venues where the wind direction is almost irrelevant. The EJF family made us extremely welcome and Martin makes a decent bacon sarnie too. We had a really great time and I'm looking forward to another Elvington visit in the future.

Thank you!

Phil
