      Meetings start about 10:30.  NOTAMs are submitted for 3000 ft.

      The club has two sites at Redwick. The main site is a set of fields separated by low hedges and ditches with a a few treees.  It is large and suitable for flying up to I impulse.   There is plenty of parking along the road, and access is through gates or across a railway sleeper over the ditch.

      The reserve field is about 300m by 300m with a few smaller fields around it.  There are houses on the north side so we fly from the south side and limit flights to D impulse.  Equipment must be carried onto this field as the ground is too soft for vehicles (but excellent for heavy landings!).

      An annotated aerial photo from Google Earth can be seen by following the Launch Site link. 

      If you want to know about other clubs' launches then have a look at the events calendar on the UKRA site.
