The hobby needs new blood and TMFC are a very forward-looking club, events like this bode well for the future if we can only keep the enthusiasm going.

*** Your club is a credit to the model flying movement,well done and may the club prosper knowing that you are putting something back into the hobby,lets hope that more clubs will not just think about themselves but do something to encourage the youngsters,there are some brilliant young flyers out there that are hooked for life,every now and again the BMFA newspaper highlight some of these success stories,very heart warming. your club is Greyhead.
