Soaring etiquette—a code of acceptable social behavior 2012/07
I often find myself bubbling with
thoughts and ideas about a
particular subject. These days, I
enjoy the benefits of technology when
I can immediately record the thoughts in
my iPhone before they are gone forever.
RC Soaring-2012/11
Discovering your
sixth sense—
your thermal sense
Introducing your new Soaring columnist - 201209
In 2010, I suggested that I would like
to organize a major F3B contest in
Florida. Many of my local Orlando
Buzzard club members responded with,
“What is F3B?” This was the catalyst that

(today’s Grand Prix of RC Soaring) was
almost forgotten in Soaring circles in the
USA.
World Soaring Masters - 2011/03
THIS PREMIER biennial RC thermal soaring event
attracted top pilots from around the world to the AMA
International Aeromodeling Center in Muncie, Indiana,
September 24-29. Muncie is renowned for trying
conditions, with up air that is often difficult to read and
sink that can be simply horrendous for pilots of all calibers
to negotiate on the way home from a downwind ride.
