Back
in Business! We have had huge issues upgrading the website
lately! Did you notice? You weren't the only one it was making crazy believe
me! But now thanks to the generous efforts of NZMAA member Rob Moody we have a new web host and will hopefully have no
further problems. Some of the last things to be sorted are those items on the
site that run from databases and this includes the calendar and the NDC
results. These things currently have to be done very manually and that takes
time. Please bear with me while I work to get this done in my free time
(Mother of three, free time Hmmmm??). In the meantime please
let
me know if you find any problems that we have missed! Thanks to those who
have already emailed we are working on fixes now.
New
Model? Do you have a new Model plane, glider or helicopter.?
Are you new to the sport or keen to find out what's involved? Please take your time
to have a look through our website and learn about Model flying in New
Zealand! For more personal and specific help please contact your local club
their details can be found
here. If there's
something else you need to know or something you think should be on this
website then try contacting me, the
webmaster or any member of the NZMAA Council
