[NSRCA-discussion] New in Chicago area and wanting to get back into Pattern

[chris moon]

Hi John:

If you live in Sycamore, the closest field would be the Fox Valley Aero
Club on Rt39 in St. Charles.  That is also one of the nicest fields in
the country as well.  They have a pattern contest every August.  There
are a few guys who are flying pattern there and they would certainly
welcome more pattern guys.  As Mark said, the biggest group of pattern
guys fly at Hoffman Estates, and by big, we are talking about 20+
active guys.  I will have a Fox Valley guy email you with some
information.

  Hi,
   
  I was directed to this list by a guy i was talking to at the
LHS, as I mentioned I was looking to get back into pattern after a
hiatus. I last flew when the Curare and Jekyll were the rage, so after
raising a daughter, I have been given a green light to get back into
flying pattern. I moved to Sycamore, IL over the summer, and want to
know where the local pattern flyers meet to practice. And, I'm looking
for a used pattern ship, preferably RTF or nealy so, to purchase as to
ease back in without the $2K investment. I have a budget if ~$1K or so
to start. Please let me know, so that when spring rolls around, I can
start back into flying pattern, as I have really missed the flying and
the great people involved.
