| Hi everyone - a reminder of the big West Coast Scale Heli Fly In
This is the last notice - the meet is this weekend!
2002 International CIRCUMGYRATION -
The largest Scale Model Helicopter event on the West Coast.
Just wanted to invite any of you scale flyers to the second R/C Scale
Circumgyration. If you have something scale, or would just like to see a
whole lot of scale in one place, please come. The event will take place May 4 - 5 in Fremont, California at the Bayside R/C club. See flyer and map at:
www.scalehelis.com/circumgyration02.html
The event features five (at least) full size helicopters. This should be a
great time to get the next set of documentation pictures for that next scale project!
There will be the usual, great Saturday night BBQ with lunch and dinner being served (cooked on a "Binford 2000" deluxe BBQ - complete with radio, TV and disco lights). We hope to get pictures of all the helis flying at various times, and do group and formation flying as well.
This event is for the scale pilot. Bring your scale helicopter and your
imagination. (Please e-mail any cool event ideas to Al Wert at
alwert@msn.com ) Fly as little or as much as you like! For those who like, there will be some judged events this year in both static display as well as flying events.
There will be a registered pilots only raffle. No tickets may be
purchased. There will be a separate general raffle for the public. The
pilots will receive raffle tickets upon registration. Raffle will be held just after lunch Sunday. Last year over $8500 worth of equipment was given away. This year will be even better!
