Club Pylon Race:

Plane: World Models Sky Raider Mach II

Engine: Any 40 class 'bushed' two stroke engine (such as TT GP42 or OS LA46)

Miscellaneous: Family and friends are welcome to come out and watch us try to fly around the pylons (poles).  There is a greater than 0% chance to see a few planes meet their expiration dates at this event.

Lunch will be served to everyone in attendance.  

Bring your own water and soft drinks.

 

Family and Friends Picnic:

Details: TBD

This event gives us a reason to drag everyone out to the field to watch us fly model airplanes.  It is fun for everyone because it really is just a big ol' summer  cookout ... burgers, hotdogs, and fun are the order of the day.  

We supply the food, you supply the water and soft drinks.  

There is no contest so this is just a relaxed day for everyone (except the cooks of course).

 

Second Annual Club Kit Build Contest:

This contest is to encourage the club members to build airplanes from kits or from scratch.

The event is open competition with the only rule being NO ARFs allowed.  

Prizes are awarded for beauty and for flying skills.  

The competition was fierce at the First Annual Kit Build Contest and the bar will be higher this year since everyone knows what it takes to win a prize.

All of the club members present vote on the models to determine the winner of the beauty contest and a small panel of judges rank the competitors in the flying skills contest.  

While this event was stressful for some of the competitors (some models had the maiden flight early that morning) it was also a lot of fun.

This year there are some secret projects underway, so the competition is already heating up.

Lunch is served to everyone in attendance.
