All about the SLMFC
We are a small friendly club and have been established now for about 6 years. This however, does not mean we are lacking in either enthusiasm, flying ability and building skills, in fact our members regularly build and fly a multitude of different model aircraft and regularly appear in popular model magazines.
We are fully affiliated with the BMFA and adhere to their Guidelines and Rules.
The Club Officers for 2012 are as Follows
Chairman - Alan Woodfine
Secretary - Wayne Butler
Treasurer - Gail Woodfine
Committee Members
Danny Howard
Ian Mcintosh
We Fly from a number of safe locations in the Barrow and South Lakes area. Our registered flying site is Walney Airfield and are allowed to fly there with the kind permission of BAE SYSTEMS any day the airfield is operational. We also fly from Cark Airfield which again offers us great views, you can see where we are by clicking here and accessing our location map.
We have a wide range of disciplines and experience within the club which include Silent Flight, Electric and IC powered. We also have a number of Instructors and Examiners so if you are a newcomer and want help and advice then you will be well looked after.
Guests are always welcome to fly as long as they are BMFA insured.
