A reminder that LMA membership for 2026 is now open! Our member secretary Gary has been kept busy the last few days with lots of renewals and new applicants coming in and we want to keep that momentum up (sorry Gary 😂)!Would you like to join the LMA? We would love to see some new faces and models around at our shows/ events, especially more of the younger generation we know are out there!Whilst we do specialise in the Larger models and the over 25kg scheme, don’t forget that you can still fly large models at our shows and fly-ins that are under 25kg.If you have considered joining the LMA, but have been put off by not having an over 25kg model.. well being an LMA offers much more than that! Membership costs just £25 for the year and gives you access to FREE LMA member only fly-in style events at various locations (e.g. buckminster, elvington etc), discounted LMA show entry/ camping if spectating, or gives you the chance to come and fly at one of our shows (once you have passed the LMA proficiency test), which also provides you with FREE show entry/ camping.These are just some of benefits being a member brings. So if you would like to find out more or join the LMA, visit our website:www.largemodelassociation.com/membership-enquiries/#LMA #LargeModelAssociation #LMAMember ... See MoreSee Less
