Another year, another Scottish Helicopter Nationals. The weather wasn't as kind as last year, wind and rain showers throughout the weekend kept us busy. As usual the warmth of the hospitallity was second to none-nothing too much for the stalwart Aberdeen members collecting people from the airport and running around sorting minor problems.

This year the M & R team was limited to "The Doc" and "Rob the Box" with Duncan and his father Wayne arriving Saturday...other light weight team members didn't travel and missed a great weekend.

Models in the Van included my 2.6m Comp ARF Extra and KingCat, Graupner Extra 300s, selection of X-cell and Heim helicopters and the Range of Foamie and ARF Graupner electric models. Twelve helis and eighteen fixed wing didn't fill the van fully and every thing came back!
