Pilots & R/C-ing...

[TomNocturnal]

Two things:

1: Is anybody here into R/C? Somebody who I can have a chat to about R/C beginner aircraft...

2: Who can I talk to about information on beginning the long hard road to becomming a fully fledged pilot!? Qualifications, PPL's, Costs and all the rest of it.
Ive spent some time looking, but I figured information from the guys in the cockpit would be best!



Thanks guys!

Tom,

I'm pretty sure Bridon_Bear has his R/C ppl (at least that's what he was aiming for) so when he pop's up, I'm certain he'll give you all the info you need

Worth downloading and reading CAP 658 from the CAA first off:

And then I'd head over to the British Model Flying Association, who provide (or did?) insurance and a list of approved flying clubs:
