Flying Site Assistance - 2003/05

I HAD the opportunity to attend the 2002
National Recreation and Parks Association
annual meeting held in Tampa, Florida,
October 16-20, 2002. The convention has an
attendance of approximately 10,000 people
consisting of parks and recreation officials
from all over the United States. They
scheduled us for an on-site seminar. Jim
Slaughter organized and coordinated the
program admirably.

DICK CARVILLE of Lowell,
Massachusetts, sent me the following
interesting story of the gain when the spirit
of camaraderie is practiced between two
clubs. In this instance, it has resulted in a
happy coexistence for two modeling clubs.
What is interesting is that one club, the
New England Stunt Team flying club, is a
CL club and the other, the 107th R/C Flyers,
is an RC club. The two have become a
happy pair.

SPORT DOMES for Indoor Flying: With the availability of
improved micro radio systems through development, a great new
era has been created in the growth and interest of flying model
airplanes indoors. These are not rubber powered—although they
could be as in the past indoor activity—but are powered with
electric motors.

A TALE OF TWO CITIES? Well, more
like a city-and-a-half. Here in the greater
Phoenix metropolitan area, otherwise known
as The Valley, flying sites are at a premium
largely because of the risk-management
people in the many neighboring
municipalities.
