Welcome to West London Model Aeroplane Club
Club meeting
Charlie Orrells talk - WLMAC member to airline pilot
Important: weekend of Sat 25th and Sun 26th October.
The Harefield site will be closed all weekend. The Tactical Delta group have a major event on, and potentially hundreds of visitors running around shooting. We have agreed to stay away that weekend.
This will not be a regular occurence; if this event goes well it might happen once or twice a year in future.
Pickeridge is not affected and training will be at Pickeridge on Saturday morning.
New weather page
We have added another page on the website menu showing the current weather and an enhanced forecast for Harefield. The current observation works by averaging the live data from Heathrow and Luton. The forecast combines 4 of the better European forecasts and shows the range of values they predict
CAA IDs reminder
From December 2025 all pilots must have done the rcc test and been issued a Flyer ID in order to fly legally. The option to use an old A-test for this is being withdrawn at the end of November. So pilots relying on an older (pre-2020) A-test will not be legal unless they have now done the rcc - even if they have a Flyer ID issued based on the A-test
