Hi from Saffron Walden

[Daphne]

Have been flying helicopters and fixed wing professionally for the last 45 years and facing retirement. Happened to see Top Gear in Africa and saw footage which I googled to discover the world of RC multi-rotors. Caught the bug and now have a Phantom 2 and Aeronavics XM8 - just completed my UK CAA permissions for aerial work so looking to enjoy flying and get paid! Just like my previous 45 years

Welcome. Must be a bit weird not being up in the air after 45years...

I try to do a little freelance work to keep the withdrawal symptoms at bay. I have the RPQ qualification, PFAW to come in the post and insured. See you're in Oxford. I am going to the Raymond Blanc cookery school for a week at Le Manor Quat'Saisons - was given it as a retirement from my boss

 

[Timtim]

Have a good cooking session. I photographed Monsieur Blanc a few years ago, and did wangle a free lunch out of it on top of my fee!

Nice pic and nice car!
