Even though it looks as though I have superimposed the model onto the background I can assure you it is just one photograph that has faded .
This is what we flew about 25 years ago - not much changes!
Indoor events - before radio went micro.
Bernie Hunt judging and Lewis Hirst (treasurer - yes there was one before Trevor) looks on.
This would be taken on Leeds Road Playing Fields.
Model called "Weekend Warrier"
David Elam will remember it vividly and I am sure he will tell you all about the slight misshap if you buy him a pint.

Who said that the trees at the bottom of the field would never grow at the altitude we fly at. That is the plantation behind me - Stan should have been flying with us; there would have been no need for him to climb trees then. Thankfully the surrounding livestock has got smaller.
If anyone else has any old photographs email me a couple (with a description) and I will put them up here.
