Inspired by the sight of a hang glider soaring off our local cliff, my second foray into model flying started with a glider (radio controlled of course) with the ambition of learning to fly well enough to do the same. However, slope soaring requires wind, and a spell of frustratingly flat calm Sundays caused me to venture into electric models. As you browse through the various sections you will see how things have developed from there. Recently the electrics have had far more flying than the soarers.

The models are grouped into five categories. For each model there is a Key Data page and for most of them there is a full Review Article. Each plane also has a log book which gives a feel for how popular it has been and also for any important modifications made since the initial review was written. Some log books also link to other articles about adventures with that particular model. You can also get to these and other flying tales via the Articles section.

I have recently begun to add a few short video clips (usually about 1MB in size). These are linked from the Key Data and Log Book pages of the relevant model. Of course, if you just want to find the recently added video clips, the Latest News page is the place to start.
