Bruce,

Is there a convenient place for RV parking near the flying site?

Don

Don,

There is plenty of room for RV parking but there a no hookups. Hope you can join us.

There is less than a month to this contest. This is a great time of year in Albuquerque. Sign up and come join us for some great flying.

This year will be our second big F5j contest with altitude limiter chips. Last year this method of equalizing launch altitude worked well and seemed to be enjoyed by all. The grass is good at the sod farm and good weather is the rule in early September. Can't wait to fly this contest again.

Like last year, the club has extra altitude limiters that they will loan to any pilots who don't have them, correct?

Just signed up fore both classes. Now I have to finish plane ASAP!

Correct, we still have an assortment of limiters available as loaners for the contest. We can als sell them if desired.
