| This is going to be great! I'm looking forward to meeting all of you and seeing your birds and of course seeing them fly. I am just now doing FFF, no stunts yet, well I did do a loop and a flip but just about crapped my pants so uhhhm I'll be taking it easy that day.
I wanted to say a few things about the field, I know some of you have heard some nasty rumours about this field and some of them may be true. BUT, there are about 6-8 heli flyers at this field already(and they will be there) and like it or not these guys(plankers) are learning the hard way that we are not going anywhere. There will always be the "ass" in any group but who cares?? I have just taken the attitude of "I'm a member of this field, I pay my dues like anyone else and I have just as much right as they do to be here" and it's working, or I hope it is anyway. I don't want to scare any of you off, they are nice there, I'm just saying don't let the rumours you may have heard deter you from showing up. I have already gotten several pm's asking for directions etc. so it looks like there is going to be a few of us. It's going to be a great time with tons of heli flying so grab your gear and show up!
Can't wait,
John
PS-When you pull into the parking lot we will be down at the south end of the field, on the other side of the building. Just turn right into the parking lot and follow it down, you'll see us. Here's a link to the field: http://www.hcamonline.org/
