Radio Control Scale - 2007/08
UNLIKE SOME AMA members I still have to work for a living,
unfortunately. But that isn’t so bad considering the company I work
for gives me a liberal amount of vacation each
year, at least in its eyes, but it still isn’t enough!
The first week of vacation my wife and I made
the long trek to a place every modeler should go
at least once in his or her life: the Toledo Expo.

EVERYONE has a common enemy that
affects daily life, and that is time. We are so
connected by technology as a nation that we
might not realize how much of our “free” time
is consumed by new gadgets, technological
advancements, etc.

Pietenpol Air Camper update
I have been working on the wing and center section of my Pietenpol Air Camper.
I changed the wing structure from a one-piece wing to a three-piece wing with
the center section staying attached. The ribs were cut and then all of the ribs that
needed holes for the center section were stacked together and the main access holes
for the aluminum tube and joiner were added. The aluminum tube will come out
with one wing panel.

“FAMILY AFFAIR,” the title of an old
television series, comes to mind when I
think about the AMA Nationals (Nats)—
especially the Scale National
Championships. Through the years it
seems as though families continue to be
an important part of the Nats.

Defining Scale fly-ins and Scale contests
I’VE RECEIVED MANY questions recently, and I’ll try to
answer some of them in this column. Topics have included
requests for documentation sources, competition information,
where to find Scale fly-ins in the US, Fokker Dr.I updates, etc.
Checking the “Contest Calendar” section of this magazine can
help when you are searching for that next contest or Scale fly-in.
They are scattered
across the country.
