[color=red]We have had several requests to see if we could move our dates so that we do not conflict with the Crow Island and Hirobo events, and that makes good sense for everyone... Now you have yet another show that you can attend!!! And you can bet that we will be glad to have you join us...
We have had a lot of fun at the past events, and this one promises to be even better...
You will be able to count on a Great flying site, Great food, Great people to fly with, and just a LOT OF FUN....
More details to follow soon...
We will be getting motel info up shortly also.... but check out website for directions to our field to get a feel for where we are... it is a beautiful place to spend a weekend (or longer!!!)

Thanks, Stan



If there is a cure for this, please don't tell me about it!!!

Can I Come?????

blackhawk509 only if you promise to practice for the Chain Gang Event!!!

Fun is what this event is based on.... we have a "couple" of light competitions that we like to throw into the mix for those BRAVE SOLES that want to try their hand at a bit of "precision flying" (????:eek), and another that someone just learning to hover has as much chance of winning as the best pilot there.... and these help to make it fun.... of course, this year we may need to come up with a couple of "fresh" ideas.... we will have to see about that....

I also see that the Hirobo Cup is going to be the same time this year, but for the guys that don't feel like driving the distance, I can tell you that we will do our best to make you feel right at home and have a great time while you visit with us.....

COME ON SUMMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Stan

I went to last year's event and I hope to go again this year. I met some great people there and saw some great flying.

It's a fantanstic flying area and the Flying Deuces are great hosts. Hopefully I'll get a chance to fly while I'm there....

Could you use a Heli-cam or two? I'd love to get some aerials. TREX-cam has been employed for Real estate shoots in past with 9.2 MP One of my Swift 16's is getting AP2000i and 7.2 MP .
Swift-Cam is fully synthed Royal Evo 9 on Tx& Rx . Should prove quite flexible.
Link to list of events?

Should've bought a sim. Got a bucket of used blades!

Stan, It will be helicam x 2. I have TREX 450xl with my own mount. See my gallery for very early version. All pix in my gallery are reduced Res. I'm still on dial up. Swift-Cam under construcion. S-Cam will have AP2000i IR stabilizer. I had to buy a 2nd Swift for the camera. The first was slated for it but it's so much fun well.... I'm trying to convince a coworker to come also. He has just started flying with coaxials and now a Fixed Pitch Night Ranger II. He's buddied on one of my TREX 450's and has the bug. Wants a 50 size Glo. He's going to buddy up alot more now , on my #1 Swift to get used to the size.
September you list Maine Model Jet Rally ! In my town! Great time. They shut down the long runway. Plenty of parking. Usually a couple full scale to touch. How about a Pristine F4U? L39 jet flyover and static display too.

Part of my flying field ! Gobs of room. That's me watching the 'birdie'

Should've bought a sim. Got a bucket of used blades!

Full Size????? Lobster Dinner????

CHARGE

So far we do have a full size heli in the plans and hopefully it is going to work out this time around.... we had a small timing issue last year, but that should be worked out for this one...

Lobster dinner..... now that should be something that we consider, but with the size of our club, could be a problem to handle at this time.... BUT I might just have to come to Maine and join in even though I don't fly "jets" regularly!!!

As far as food goes though, we do have our good friends Jim and Linda coming back to keep everyone filled and happy.... maybe I could suggest a Lobster Taco or Lobster Pizza???? Or Lobster ????? You never know!!!!!

Really looking forward to seeing everyone this year.... and even sooner if the weather would STOP MESSING with us and get on with Spring!!!!

One Request

Is it possible for you guys to work out the funfly dates so us semi local guys can attend both events?

http://www.runryder.com/helicopter/t335770p1/

I saw them add their event after yours. So, I asked them the same thing. However, they've been holding the event on the same weekend for past 15 years according to them.

I would love to see the date adjusted too so I could go to this event also. I am the one that did crow island for 13 of those years straight. It is the longest running oldest event in New England. Be great to be able to go to both!!!

Dates......

We already have the AMA sanction in place for these dates, BUT I have asked our new "prez" to see what he can do with either the 16th and the 17th or the 30th and the 1st..... as long as this doesn't conflict with the 4th of July holiday..... I will get back to this post as soon as we find out what if anything can be done... I know that some others had mentioned that it was also the same weekend as the Hirobo Cup and they would also like to attend.... so, I am going to give it a shot.....and will let everyone know... Thanks for the notes.... Stan

If there is a cure for this, please don't tell me about it!!!
