October Drop In
The regular monthly Drop In for October will be slightly different than usual. ACS NSW Gold sponsor Coptercam will demonstrate their Aerial Camera System and due to restricted air space at ACS HQ the flying demo will take place at North Sydney Park. Footage recorded at the demo will then be taken to HQ for screening and a Q&A with Glen McGarry of Coptercam will follow. Kick off will be the usual 6pm on the 18th October but proceed directly to the the corner of Ridge and Miller streets North Sydney rather than to HQ. For those attending the Q&A only HQ doors will still be open from 6pm. Ridge and Miller is about 150 meters from HQ. HQ address details are at the bottom of this page.
