Soft Launch @ RMS Port Road New Flying Field
Warming up the new field
New field. New faces. New ideas.
RMS is proud to present our new flying site with beautiful scenery, gentle sea breeze and back-facing morning sun.
Almost most of the time of the day, we get head winds on the whopping 130m grassed runway - enough for any RC planes to take off in a scale-like manner, and land easily.
There is a makeshift loo for the gents (ladies can use the toilet a 5 minutes walk away to the Labrador MRT Station), a helipad, drone arena, safety guard nets to protect occupants both in the tentage and the pilots at the field flying.
The soft opening was indeed a success with many new sign ups. Some enthusiastic pilots like you and me rushed to fly solo after a simple proficiency test.
