As I found out recently, when you go to renew your CAA Operator ID, you will be asked to complete a new test for your Flyer ID as well, even if your five years aren’t up. This is because a number of the regulations have changed, like the UK0, UK1 labelling and needing to show a green flashing light at night, etc.
The latest regs can be found at https://www.caa.co.uk/media/csmfqbs1/the-drone-code-march-2026.pdf
On Saturday 21st June 2025 we hosted the Dalgety Bay Scouts (who were camping locally) for RC plane demonstrations, helicopter demos and buddy-box flying on the Club Trainer for the lucky ones (over a dozen scouts had a go and maybe 40+ visited our field). It must have felt like ‘The Longest Day’ for Chair Neil and Treasurer Mike who spent the whole day at the field, hosting the visit. Well done!
Hello and welcome to our new website. We have moved from paying for a web domain to using one sponsored by the BMFA, we are one of a number of clubs that they are now hosting and we would like to say a warm thanks to Andy Symons of the BMFA for setting it up. This new website is based on WordPress which is a very popular website management system that has its origins in blogging.
We are still adding to the website as I write this but there is a great amount of material already there. We hope you enjoy looking around it!
