  Northeast pattern enthusists,

  The Pocono Pattern Contest, in the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area (Pennsylvania), is just a few weeks away, on June 28th-29th. Check-in begins at 8:30 AM. Pilots meeting will be at  9:30 AM. Flying will start at around 10:00 AM due to the early morning sun. We shouldn't have any problem getting in three rounds on Saturday, and two more on Sunday. We will be running two flight lines.

  Special Notice: For the Sportsman class (401) only, the AMA weight limit will be increased to 15-pounds. I don't want any noisy giants, though I've gotten some special requests from people who want to try pattern but only have slightly overweight sport-scale ARF models. The more the marrier, and if we can encourage new interest in the sport then the better will be for everyone.

  Registration is $30.00 for both days. Food concessions will be on hand with the usual BBQ menu and beverages gallor (plenty of bottled water). 

  Info regarding contest can be found at www.nsrca.org under the Contest Calendar sub-head. A link there can be found under District One to download the flyer. You can also visit www.ramac.org for information about this years contest, plus see photos and coverage of the event last year.
