Shaun, I have just called the BMFA to check and the Chuck n Duck is definitely both Saturday AND Sunday....... though as it happens, at the moment the forecast marginally favours Saturday. :P

Hi Paul,
I've just spoken to Andy Simmons. The marshalled chuck and duck event on Saturday has the largest attendance. Flying is available at the same time on Sunday as you said, it would seem this is also called the chuck and duck by many now and is also marshalled.

Confusion on my part
, as for many of us this has never been considered the Nats chuck and Duck event just a flying opportunity.
Saturday will be the best to attend with the most modellers and models if you can make it. Phil &I will be there.

Cheers,

Shaun.
