2011 Heli Guiness record attempt

Received an E-mail today from the RC Heli association -
The Eagles Flying club in Lincoln are aiming for the guiness world record for the most Rc helicopters in the air at once. Places are tight - they are only looking for about 50 more pilots to take part, and places are going quick!
The event is a full weekend 29th, 30th and 31st July - Lincoln air ambulance, local press and roumors of tv present too!
I for one would love a Guiness World record certificate hanging on my wall, and will book my place when I have spoken to SWMBO. Pm me if you want more details!

Ahh but Stubbsy, it says "most helicopters in the air" have yours been that high yet?

HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE

Not the right way up granted!

Sounds pretty cool,I'm sure this weekend in July clashes with something though?
Stubz how many did they manage last year?

Just get all the model helicopters in the world put them in a big sack & get a Chinook to lift them in the air.

When they get to a reasonable height drop the f**kin lot in a big heap & do us all a favour.

Look on the bright side they would get the guinness world record with that as well.

Were you attacked by a helicopter as a kid Rich? - I detect a slight hint of dislike for them!

Nah I have one, I look at it every now & again then think what's the point.

It's just a standing joke.

Nothing personal

Wasnt taken personally mate - only yanking your chain!

Another Badham classic there !

Excellent ( the "joke" I mean - not the event )

"The most radio controlled helicopters airborne at the same time was 31 and was achieved by the Radio Controlled Helicopter Association at the Eagles RC Helicopter Club in Lincolnshire, UK, on 19 September 2010."

This year they are going to try to beat it, which lets face it shouldnt be too hard to do!
Personally I think its worth the three hour journey just to recieve a World Record certificate!

40 minutes to my place Ben - and Ill print you one for nowt

Joking aside if your up for it do it mate, I may even come with you if my calender is free
