I have been an aero modeller since I was 12 years old, starting in control line and progressing to single channel radio when I was 16. I have seen many changes and advancements in this hobby over the years, but sadly these days we are seeing a decline in the new take up of the hobby and the number of modellers is declining throughout the country. I joined RADMAC back in 1993 after I moved to this part of the country. I have seen many changes in the flying site over these years both to our actual grass area and the use of the entire site. I have also had a number of roles within the committee over this time, most recently the secretary position that I had to stand down from due to ill health. But I am back to fitness again and have taken up a role of member’s rep to continue to serve and help the club that I love.
