District I - 2012/02
THE SPORT of aeromodeling has seen
many changes in the past 75 years, as the
hobby industry and modelers have created
new technologies for building and flying
model aircraft. Unlike many hobby sports
where new ideas, techniques, and products
replace the old, there have always been
groups of aeromodelers who enjoy
preserving, promoting, and utilizing the
kinds of model aircraft and equipment from
the “Golden Age of Flight.”
District I - 2011/04
I AM HAPPY to say that more district
club members have been sending me
reports of their club’s aermodeling events
for publication in this column. The
following report comes from the Green
Mountain State of Vermont and was sent to
me by Dave Dress, the secretary and
treasurer of his club.
District I Report - 2010/06
NEW ENGLAND states were the hardest hit
by the rainstorm and flooding of March 29
through 31. Rainfall total was highest in Rhode
Island with 9.97 inches.
I bring this up because my club’s access
road to the flying field is ½ mile in length and
sustained considerable damage. In numerous
sections, there are washouts across the road
making passage to the flying field impossible.
District I - 2010/10
IN KEEPING with its mission to promote
and encourage the hobby of building and
flying model airplanes, the Propsnappers
R/C Club (PRCC) of Portland, Maine, took
part in the Aviation Career Exploration
(ACE) Academy Camp program on July 27.
