It's back again on the 6th September.
Phil, Mike,Tobe,Rob, Jonathan, myself, possibly Graham and a few others have already booked it in. If you've never been then come along and have some fun.
More details on their website www.ivinghoe.org.uk

I've been refurbing a few toys for it such as Dave Hardaker's blue/ white original prototype Kwiksilver (built a new wing), his glassed orange/ white one and just built the re-released Sailplanes International Secret Weapon and I've a bunch of others ready.

Cheers,

Shaun

Shaun,

This year I’m forgoing the UKF3A Nationals (same weekend) in favour of Ivinghoe.

Only have powered Gliders so guess will have to take plenty of rubber bands. See you there.

Plenty of time to build a slope kipper Graham or buy an old one and fettle it. šŸ˜„

Is there a kipper theme? or do you know something about the weather we don't?

Frantically building as quick as the Super Glue dries.

Is it just the Saturday or Sunday as well ?

I believe it's the Saturday , but we will probably be there, Saturday and Sunday ( until lunch time ) and possibly Friday afternoon.

Predicted to be Southerly light winds for next weekend, is that a good wind direction?
