Welcome to the Dundee Model Aircraft Club Basic Training Guide.
This is a brief outline of how we can help you to be a safe and proficient flier. These pages are not intended to replace any of the S.A.A. training guides but to complement them. There are a number of commom things you need to know, whether you are interested in fixed wing, helicopters or whatever and this section deals with those. Where the different disciplines of flying diverge, there are separate sections, accessible through the menus above.
