From 2006 the Committee have decided to keep track
only of BARCS All Time Records
and will no longer list records on an annual
basis
BMFA records to be set or
broken
Original list taken from the BMFA web site in June 2006, cut down
to suit R/C Soaring
Nick Shaw from ISA flew an Eliminator 134 at Ivinghoe Beacon on the 7-8
September 2001 for
36 hours 3 minutes and 19 seconds - more than
doubling the existing British record and beating the world duration record for
ANY model flight (not just slope duration). This flight was ratified at the
BMFA Technical Council Meeting on 27th October 2001 as British record
and recognised by the FAI as a world record on 21st November 2001. Full
details and pictures at Mike Shellim's
