Our club chairman is the manager of the UK F3C team (helicopter
competitions). He also teaches people to fly helis for a living. Needless
to
say our club has a heli bias ;-).

I usually tend to fly during the week when there are only two or three
other
people there. I haven't had to swap crystals once yet!
