Training Scheme
For Beginners
We offer free tuition for beginners, guiding them to the BMFA "A" test level, using the "Buddy-box" system, and later to the BMFA "B" test.
There are a number of club intructors that are able to assist those new to the hobby.
BMFA 'A' Test
The BMFA test is the minimum requirement needed before you can be let loose to fly at the site. This is when the learning really begins. Like anyone who has just passed their test confidence is built up with experience. However there is always the onset of complacency which inevitably results in the inevitable crash!
BMFA 'B' Test
The test is designed to test the competance of those who may wish to be let loose at a public display
