Possible New D4 Pattern Contest for 2003

[Larry Diamond]

Looking for interest in a Southern Indiana Pattern Contest. Date isn't set
yet. My club asked me to get certified as a CD so I did. In return I'm
asking them to sponsor an annual pattern contest starting next year.

Our clubs website is www.geocities.com/dd147546, the pics are two years old.
Hotels and Camping sites within two to ten miles of the field.

Jasper is located in Southern Indiana ~20 miles north of  I-64 between
Louisville and Evansville.

Distances....

Evansville, IN - 1 hour
Indianapolis, IN - 2-1/2 hours
Cincinnati, OH - 3-1/2 hours
Dayton, OH - 4 hours
Louisville, KY - 1-1/2 hours
Owensboro, KY - 1 hour
Nashville, TN - 3 hours
St. Louis, MO - 4 hours

The main runway runs East-West w/ the pits to the South and is 400ft x 50ft.
Low cut rough around the runway. The flying site is located on an old
landfill. The runway grass is cut pretty short and the runway is fair. Very
open and unobstructed flying.

The club has been working very hard to keep improving on the runway for the
past two years. I have flown two different 60/90 size planes with music wire
struts and one of them w/ retracts. Unless I had a hard landing, I didn't
need to bend the struts back.

Not looking for a commit yet. If you are interested please reply with:
1) Name and contact information
2) The class you plan to fly
3) Your NSRCA District if known.

If there are folks that would like to compete in an Artistic Areo Class, I
can just about guarantee some spectators from the local area for a Sunday
"AA" finals and would be willing to promote it through local news media.
We've had an annual airshows in early August and bring in 75 to 120
non-flying spectators for an hour or two for the last three years.

Please forward this to anyone you may think would be interested. (Especially
Northern D3, D4, and D5).

Tom Weedon and Bob Satalino, can you forward this to your District List?
Matt Kebabjian, can you forward this to your Tennessee folks? Brian
Clemmons, not sure if this is worthy for mention in the K-Factor. But any
help in getting the word out would help....

You can e-mail me @ jed241 at msn.com, or call
(812) 482-1633 - Home
(812) 634-4286 - Work
