Fortunately the wounds to his fingers did not envolve damage to the tendons.  The Club's first-aid kit was readily to hand (no pun intended) and after a visit to A & E and some treatment, the patient was discharged.

This kind of accident can happen so easily.  A momentary lapse of concentration can spoil your day at the Field. It dosen't matter whether you are working with a glow engine or an electric motor, they both are capable of inflicting very nasty injuries.  If you are assisting a pilot with his plane, try not to chat to him too much and let him concentrate on what he is doing.
