Nick @ Nite Inquiry:
The "Nick @ Nite" crew would like to know how many would be interested in having several of the club 3D pilots hold a Nick @ Nite activity to teach other club members the “tricks of the trade” regarding 3D flying. This could include instruction on what 3D is all about, how to set up a plane for performing 3D maneuvers, instruction/demonstration of how to perform some of the unique 3D maneuvers, and “over the shoulder” one on one flight instruction.
If you are interested, or have questions please let
Tim
or
Nick know.

ATTENTION ALL!
Today we had a non-member get locked behind the gate, unable to leave our field.
REMINDER: As members of the club, it is OUR responsibility to lock the gate when we leave. This is part of the agreement we have with the Parks Department. This rule is not flexible.
As such, this ALSO means that when non-members come into the field and are not there to spectate our flying we MUST let them know that we are required to lock the gate when we leave and notify them that they need to park OUTSIDE of the gate in order to not be locked in.
If you see ANYONE that is there for hiking, dog runs or any activity OTHER than RC flying with a vehicle, it's your responsibility as a club member to notify them and ask them to move their vehicles.
Thank you.

Attention All:
Hello everyone, I’m coming out to the membership to request a couple of the more experience flyers to solicit some individuals that are willing to assist me in training new members spend time buddy boxing these individuals to get their qualifications. I’ve been doing this for 9 – 10 years and Greg has been doing this for more time than that. My recent medical condition is going to put a severe impact on my ability to teach new people.Please, if anyone is able to step in to assist me, please contact me. We definitely want to continue this invaluable asset that we have in the RC Modeling hobby. I’ve been extremely impressed over the years where other members taught me, and many others. Thank you, KC

Learn to Fly - Free!

The Introductory Pilot Program is free to the trainee. It gives the beginning pilot an opportunity to learn how to fly using a club-supplied airplane and transmitter.
The instructor's transmitter has full control of the aircraft but at any time, with the flip of a switch, allows the trainee to pilot the airplane with a second transmitter.
It's a great way to learn about model airplanes while getting hands-on flying experience.
For more information, contact the Head Flight Instructor.
