Click here for the online programme
The online programme is similar to the events management plug in we used previously, only now it’s better because it’s been built from scratch, like a finely tuned F3A model.
Frazer’s challenge to you … try and break it !! A chocolate fish will be headed your way if you find a bug / or suggest a good improvement, this thing has been through a lot of testing, but we need people to test it out.
Use the filters and search tools to find “just your stuff”. Click the “More Info” link to see all the details, including related CD / SIG contact details.
Filter by a SIG or two, and try the Calendar view in Day / Week mode to see what’s on and when.
It will run on multiple platforms, desktop, tablet, mobile phone etc.
Check out the cool new “My Events” feature that lets you build up a favorites list of just the events you are interested in. You can print off just your favorites list. Plus you will see if other like minded modellers have also “liked” an event, and when you go to register, if you have added events to your favourites list, the system will carry those events through to registration for you. Nice !!
As we have done in the past, you can click the location links to get details of where the flying sites are, and a GPS link that will let your phone take you to the field using your prefered mapping app. BTW – Some of those links are still from last years nats, and they will be updated when sites are confirmed closer to the time. (Free Flight your field right now is correct, its close to all the action, Rob Wallace has it sorted)
And for the luddites out there, there is an “Old School 1990’s” version of the programme that you can print off and stash in your field kit / on the dash of your 1970’s holden kingwood. Obviously if you print it off, and we tweak some events, you won’t see those on your bit of paper, but even I will admit, the “rocky” version is very quick and easy to look at. Look for the “View Classic Version (PDF)” link up the top.
