Have a look at:
http://www.chchsoar.org.nz/ Click on the "Content" menu and then select "flying sites". There are great flying sites all around the hills of Christchurch. The best ones for composite model landing sites are: - Allendale - John Britten Reserve - Worsley Spur to a lesser extent. You could post questions on the chchsoar club forums and arrange to meet people. There is an EPP 60 inch race this Sunday 3 October 2004. Meet in front of Princess Margaret hospital at Noon. We then pick a site and drive in convoy. Regards. |

Yeah agree, but NZ is the main place in your region, Oz is just a backwater  ....also only two sites in the UK so far  . I have another couple to add but no pictures yet. The site seems to get some hits as we recently had some Texan's visit the slope I posted.
