Events: (updated 12 Feb 26)
Flying evenings:
Indoor Flying: Great Barford Village Hall, Fishers Close, Gt. Barford, MK44 3HA. (Just off Green End Rd.)
As well as flying outside on our regular flying fields all year round, during the Winter months usually, we meet up inside about once a month. We have a natter, fly indoor models and complain about how the weather does not let us fly as much as we would like. During the Winter months these are normally held “ABOUT” monthly. The hall is okay for small very lightweight indoor models vapors, mini helis, tiny whoop quads etc. It is not suitable for larger, faster flying models, 3D models, or larger helis and quads.
Wednesdays 1930 to 2130hrs
Remaining Dates:
Wed 11 March
Wed 15 April
Cost: £3.00 per person to cover the Hall hire & includes tea & biscuits.
