RC Plane flying this Sunday. Come along!
Well, the weather lately has NOT been good, so fingers' crossed for this Sunday from around 9am-12pm.
You can always check the weather camera to see if anyone is there. I believe it is updated every 30 minutes.

The Wairarapa Model Aero Club is a small club of about 36 members. Its aim is primarily to enjoy aeromodelling and to provide the facilities and means for its members to have fun with the sport in a safe and controlled environment. We lease an area at Masterton’s Hood Aerodrome and club days on Sunday and Thursday mornings attract a good following.
The Wairarapa Model Aero Club is affiliated to the Model Flying New Zealand, the national body for the sport in the country, and abides by its regulations. We also help out with hosting the annual MFNZ National Championships which are held in the Wairarapa on a regular basis.
Several club members are approved MFNZ instructors and are more than happy to share their expertise and advice with anyone. We are also happy to teach you how to fly using the clubs own training aircraft using dual-controls.

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
