30/10/08 Great Orme PSSA event report added.
The ever popular Great Orme at Llandudno was the setting for the final weekend PSSA event planned for 2008.  Read more about it HERE.
20/09/08 Lleyn MAC PSSA event report added.
Despite high pressure grounding all but the lightest of PSS models there was some flying to be had in otherwise spectacular weather at the September Lleyn MAC event.  See the write up and more photos HERE.
05/09/08   It is with great sadness that the PSSA has recently learnt of the loss of 2 of its most long standing members, Jack Edwards - who passed away in July and Ron Collins, who died this week. 

Both Jack and Ron were creative, prolific PSS modellers and active members of the PSSA. 

Jack will be best remembered by our members for his beautiful Zlin Akrobat and the flights he made with this model in light lift when all other models were grounded.

Ron, a founder member of the PSSA, was present with his famous F-86 Sabre design at the very first PSSA event at Clwyd back in 1984 and has since developed countless successful designs.

Both Jack and Ron will be sorely missed by us all and our thoughts are with their respective families at this time.
