We at Punggol Field Walk have a great recreational activity and a great passtime for both younger ppl from 10yrs to older ppl 80yrs which is flying remote control planes. Besides flying friends and family can gather around and chit chats and relax. After a whole day of stresfull work I will always come down in the evening relax and flew a couple of rounds on my plane. Before sitting down and chat with friends and going dinner with them.
As far as I am concern, we try to make the place safe with others kids or ppl jogging around by asking them to keep clear when we are landing or taking off. But its sad that sometimes these ppl misunderstood us and thought we are chasing them away.
Now we have a signboard saying "No flying of Remote Control Planes'' When we checked, we were told that the reason was because residents complains that we dirty the place. We always try our best to keep the place clean although there is no rubbish bin could be found, we bought our own rubbish bin and left it there for ppl to throw their litters there. We even gather round and do area cleaning of the fields around Punggol Field Walk and stopped flying there for a moment, but sad to see litters all around again. So it seems that we are not the only culprits, but we are taking the blame for it!
We were invited to fly when we had the Punggol-Sengkang bridge opening ceremony and eveyone had a good time despite the showers of blessing that came upon us.
Now we were invited to fly for National Day Celebration here in Punggol, but sad to say we have no place to practice and everyone of us have to scatter all over the place to look for a place to fly and gather.
Has and anyone like to share their views on this?
Cheers!
