[NSRCA-discussion] Fw: Question? F3P competitions.

[jeffghughes at comcast.net]

I don't think Kathy is on this distribution list. And lest we forget, all pattern fliers aren't on this list either. Maybe someone could go through the membership roles and find someone in Greenville and have them contact them.

Kathy, if you look at http://www.nsrca.us and http://www.nsrca.us/calendartop/calendar.html you will find lots of info. Patrick is in the District 2 group and if he follows that link he will find info on local, or near local, flyers. If he is able to attend on of the two remaining contests he will see what F3A is all about and meet lots of help. If he chooses to fly, and you can fly anything in the Sportsman class, then the patterns he must learn are on the NSRCA site. Contact me off the list for more info.

Hey Kathy, 


  I haven't flown pattern for many years, and only at lower levels then. So I'm not that familiar with the requirements/rules now. But,,,,,   I do think I can put you in touch with a couple of guys who can. One of which is a fellow club member Bob Richards  who had a very successful pattern career in years past. He has returned to to R/C in recent years and he and his son Matt have competed in IMAC together( pattern competition with giant scale models) with good success. Bob may still have some good points of contact in the pattern scene who could help your son Patrick. I'll forward this e-mail to Bob. 


  Also, I am forwarding this to Horizon Hobby Team Member Ryan Smith of Greensboro NC. Ryan is very active in the pattern scene now and I'm sure he would be more than willing to offer advice or help to your son. Ryan has been very successful in pattern, and currently involved on a world team level that is competing for the USA team now. Another great guy in our sport who I feel could help you and your son. Hope this helps. If you have any questions you feel I may help out with, feel free to call me.

Mr. Larry Lewis; 
I am writing on behalf of my son Patrick Frost age 17. He attends High School in Greenville, SC. While searching for some information on remote control flying I found your event "Children's Charity Fly-in" and found your name. Sir I hope you don't mind me contacting you and I will try to get to the point of my contacting you. Patrick has become interested in flying F3P. He flies, electric motor planes and is a good pilot. We are having a very difficult time finding anyone with any knowledge about pattern flying. We are very limited because we have never become involved in any type of flying club. The High School Patrick attends requires what they call a Senior Project in which the student picks a project to explore and report on at the end of eight months. My question to you is simply can you help us with a name or any information on F3P at this point anything and I do mean anything would be greatly appreciated and highly valued! If he does not come up with someone to talk to in the next few days he is going to have to choose a different topic which would be very disapointing. 
I sincerely thank you for your time!
