Sad News

Postby Dave Hayfield » May 21st, 2021, 10:06 pm

After a prolonged fight against a debilitating illness our old friend Les Eagle passed away yesterday. Many of you will have known him as flightline director at many of the shows in the southeast. Les was also a skilled display pilot of the old school, building many of his superb scale models from scratch. I spoke to him only a couple of weeks ago and his aim this year was to make it to Wings & Wheels, sadly not to be. We will miss you Les. Dave, Sheila, Greg and all of the modelling crew who knew him.
