warning! propaganda to follow...
Blatant advertizing here, so feel free to ignore please
If anybody wanted to get a model rack and save on the shipping costs, here is a good chance for y'all. I can arrange for a box of racks to be shipped either to my hotel or a local pilot. I will pay the shipping costs myself, hoping that there will be more than 1-2 orders. I can even buy and bring some padding material, so you will be able to assemble and use the rack immediately. If I get enough orders, I may be able to pay for my hotel room (for one night maybe) from all of the profits! https://www.rcgroups.com/forums/show...1#post19447886 Send me an e-mail or just PayPal the payment and mention JEM in the message. |

Well now that the BSOA is in the books, we can look forward to the JEM 2012. We now have 59 pilots signed up to fly, 44 of which are paid. I have decided to set the cutoff at 60 pilots, so there are officially 16 slots left for paying pilots. The pilots list on page one of the thread has been updated as of 11/08/11.
We're gonna have a great contest - hopefully JE will send us some good weather like today. |

Things you should know about flying at ElDorado Park
As a heads up to those who may be new to flying at ElDorado Park, I thought I'd note some of the things that make flying at ElDorado Park "special".
1) It costs $7 to enter tha park. You get one exit/re-entry per day. 2) We have a 400 foot ceiling. As you practice the next couple of months , keep this in mind. You won't be able to spec out your plane to make 5 minutes. Hasn't been a problem for us over the years. 3) Our park is open to the public for flying. The AMA club that flies out of this site has agreed to ask their members to not fly that weekend. But we can't keep non club members off the site. SO there may be some electric flying going on to the far north of the flying field. I will post signs for weeks in advance to warn them of our contest and most of the folks know me and are pretty cool. 4) Our field is surrounded by reachable treeline on 3 sides. Makes for some great lift but can also cause grief for those with less than excellent depth perception. I you think this may describe you, bring your tree climbing/retrieval gear. We have had to call tree services in the past and I'll make sure to have a couple we can use if need be, but they ain't cheap! That's about it. These things rarely become an issue...but you have been warned! Clay |
