Binham LMA Autumn Weekend
The Belgium RC modelling club Pampa Modelfighters (PMF) organizes an international jetmeeting called “Jets over Pampa” during the weekend closest to the 21st of July.
This meeting is one of the biggest of his kind in Europe and attracts pilots and their models from all over Europe. The emphasis of the whole weekend is on entertainment and on providing a friendly atmosphere, not only for the audience but for the pilots as well. The meeting takes place at flying site on a military bombing range.
Jets over Pampa is a meeting exclusive for radio controlled airplanes powered by a miniature jet engine or a fully built in ducted fan engine (fuel or electric). These airplanes are real mini-jets. Speeds up to 300 km/h (190 mph) are perfectly attainable by the top-quality models participating at this event.
