Monty Tyrell 2014
This year we had ran the Monty over a two day period. We had a great turn out for the Saturday & also for the Monty on the Sunday. Despite the weather being a bit ordinary, fun was had by all.
This year we had 4 judges who could award a trophy & prize based on a criteria of their own choosing.
The 4 winners were:
- Brian Evans with his Fokker Triplane
- David Balfor with a Boeing 40S 1928
- Gary Sunderland and his BE2c
- Scott Mathews and his de Havilland DH.4
This year the Monty Tyrell trophy was awarded to the whole team from Model Engines. This was in recognition of all the years of support they have provided to P&DARCS for events like this.
A thank you also to Fred Barabasz from Hallum Hobbies & Michael Lui from Dragon RC, who along with Model Engines provided great prizes for this event.
Finally a huge thank you to Roly Gaumann who put a great deal of effort into organising this year Monty Tyrell.

There's also a great YouTube clip that's worth having a look at from Shepparton.
This is a clip of Mike Farnan test flying a new Phoenix model, the Tucano AFT Kit. Mike is testing the kit's AFT to NFA (Never Fly Again) capabilities. I think it's great that these guys put so much effort into testing these models before they go on sale!!. To see this testing in action click here.
