Hartlepool Model Flying Club

We meet on the third Wednesday of every month at the Burn Valley Club (ex RAFA Club) on Stockton Road in Hartlepool. All are welcome including juniors. Arrive at around 7.45pm for an approximate 8.00pm start. The formal business of the Club is dealt with by Nic our secretary. Those arriving after 8.30pm usually find that they have missed the meeting!
The rest of the club evening is given over to socialising, discussing the latest hard landings, moaning about the weather, describing the dead heats that members have witnessed in zeppelin races and other useful activities.
We have a flying field on a farm near Hart Village. Usually we meet there on Saturday and Sunday afternoons although it can be used at any reasonable time. We also make the occasional use of Brierton Sports Centre for Indoor Flying.
Club membership stands at approximately 30 members of which there are number of non flying members so queuing at the field for frequencies is a very rare occurrence. Unfortunately the club has a membership limit imposed by our land owner’s desire to limit the number of people using his land.
