Please join us for our annual Fall event.
Laid back, no pressure, but very competitive, and lots of fun
We missed seeing y'all last Spring.
Lets show to the world that we can still have fun with our toy airplanes.

Its been so hot this summer. I can't wait for the cooler weather in November.

This is a great contest!
Hopefully my state will allow me to travel to NC w/o having to quarantine for 14 days.
If so .. I plan to be there.
F5J rocks!

Looking forward to some F5J with you guys. I need to try and get up there some weekend before the contest and do a little flying. I'll keep an eye on the weather. Just got finished cleaning up from the hurricane that came through a few weeks ago.

Certainly do come for some weekend flying also. Maybe even more then once

I'm in! Probably be camping on the field. John K

Hope you find some firm ground this time, John!
