Static & Flying Display Port Lympne July 2006 The club was asked to provide a static and flying display at Port Lympne country park & zoo July 15th & 16th. It was a weekend charity fund raising event with runs and cycle rides in aid of various charities. MMFC was fund raising for the Kent Air Ambulance with RC flights on buddy leads for £1 and goes on a flight simulator. Although windy on saturday it was superb sunny weather for the weekend, set in beautiful rural scenary and several club members camped. The MMFC Encampment |
