It's because when camelon club folded the majority of members applied to join Denny club and were accepted, so that was them into region e

camelon was in sect d when in north west fed ,, but when they joined denny club that put them in section e midland fed ,

 

my fed is glasgow and glasgow has always been section f , the only way to be in sect e is join the lan , but were oot the boundry or go doon the west way the midland but am no that insane :rolleyes:blantyre and ek would have been section f asweel when they flew in glasgow too

[yeboah]

Any Chance I could qualify for south lanarkshire as am closer to symington than i am Gretna

Does the sections not go with federations, but something needs to be in place because as time goes on and clubs finish the members need to go somewhere and could lead to more confusion

john there was someone flying in camelon last year in section d eastbourne 2010 75th open

in essence you could have two birds come to the one village and both win there sections

 

like delboy and stb both in kirkintilloch but one region e one region f

when we split area's in our taxi business never do you use a street as a split you use railway lines ,postcode boundray,grass area's rivers and streams

[Rooster J. Cogburn]

yes youngy takes this race very seriously,great record youngy and hugh is never too far away ;)
