Welcome to VARMS

The Victorian Association for Radio Model Soaring (VARMS) was formed so members can be guided and advised in further developing their common interests through the means of organised flying meetings, friendly competitions and social gatherings.

VARMS was formed in 1968, to get together aero-modellers who were interested in building and flying radio controlled gliders. Members fly at many places, but have a home field on High Street Road, Wantirna South where training classes are free to all and are held on Sunday mornings, generally on a fortnightly basis. Check out the event calander for exact dates.

The latest Aspecitvitee newsletter is available here

The last prattle for 2009
Written by Steve Tester   

This little prattle is a follow up on the December one,  to follow up on the result, and some other things that got missed on the night.

First off, the attendance. I think we did better than 50% of the members, so people do care about our future. And you all listened to the presentation by Pat Meehan, who probably knows more about what is happening than anybody, but still doesn't have all the answers, as things are still evolving. I was particularly impressed with the questions Pat got asked. That said, I think the VARMS plan is now set in place, and we can get set to and make our little patch work. And yes, like marriage, it may take a little work before we are happy with it.

Presidents Prattle.. December 09
Written by Steve Tester   

If you wish to be part of the future direction of VARMS, then you need to be part of the December meeting

Before you start, take the time to think of the future of Briggs Field about 18 months ago.

The December meeting at Briggs Field will be quite special for a number of reasons, if for no other than it will be the last for the field  layout that we have become so comfortable with. The shelter will go on the Monday after the meeting.

High Apsect - a look at 40 years
Written by Colin Smith   

40 Years is a long, long time, and VARMS has been around for that long. This publication cannot hope to cover every event in the 40 year history of VARMS and why should it, that has already been done very well by Ex-President and Life Member Des Bayliss and is available through the VARMS website? and it is a very good read, chock full of lots of good ?stuff?.
