Well Decca, I don't have any formal training. What I have learnt from my rc flying and crashing (I can now take off, fly a ciruit or six, set up an approach and land.And repair a balsa model!) is a lot of the common sense stuff like when not to fly and always have a plan, and a backup plan. Also I've got pretty good at reading the weather.
Reedy Creek is near Broadford in victoria.
