General Announcements

[Celwin]

Discussion is occurring regarding our current flying ban, as we have our first calendared fly-day for the year, this Sunday. I understand that TARMAC are flying again, with caution.
I haven't talked about this with George as yet, but we may allow flying, with caution, with wording such as;
"During days of 'High' fire danger, any flying must have at least three persons at the field. At least one must accompany the pilot to the strip and remain there during the flight. Should a model crash or land away from the strip and require retrieval, the fire extinguisher must accompany the pair. If a fire occurs, the third may be required to call 000 for assistance."

The fire extinguisher will be strapped to a fridge trolley so that it can be located at the pilot's box on fly days and easily taken to a crash site, fire or not...

We are currently classed as "Very High", so flying may only occur on calendared days, such as our current fly days and perhaps Wednesday afternoons, so long as several able-bodied persons are there.

I will let you know tomorrow of the outcome of the committee's discussions, so that we can be prepared for Sunday. Let me know if you have any objections to the above proposal, so that it can be taken into consideration.
