The South Midlands Soaring Association (SMSA) is a club for
radio control model glider pilots. The Club is affiliated to
the British Model Flying Association. The majority of the activities
for the club are slope soaring, and silent flight. We fly a
large range of models including scale models, fully moulded
aerobatic models, EPP and built up balsa thermal soarers.
The principle aim of the club is to provide a safe environment
for model glider flying from our flying sites at the Burton
Dassett Hills Country Park and Sunrising Hill, Warwickshire.
We also aim to assist members in improving their standards of
building and flying their aircraft.
We also arrange various social and fun events throughout the
year.
The SMSA encourages and welcomes new members to
the sport and club members are always willing to give help and
advice particularly to novice pilots so they can fly their models
safely and confidently.
We are a sociable club and there can always be someone found
flying from our sites. (Given the appropriate weather conditions).
If you would like to know more about us then please contact
us from this site.
Membership for the SMSA is £5 and runs from
Jan 1st to Dec 31st. New members are always welcome.
If you would like to join and need a membership form, then e-mail

page or contact the secretary.
Don't forget to tell us a bit about yourself and how much flying
you have done etc!!
