[NSRCA-discussion] What do you folks do at your flying sites?

[Anthony Romano]

Can be a touchy subject, especially at Nats practice sites!Kind of like the length of a minute depends on what side of the bathroom door your are on.
Most clubs in my area a sequence maybe a couple of maneuvers and land.  Two pattern pilots in the air at the same time always increases midair risk. Start adding F and unknown sequences and things can really get messy. Lately, having issues with the proliferation of the cheap foam gliders. Guys spend 30+ minutes loitering around the top of the box or areas out of bounds.

Electrics fly 8 minutes per tankful and YS and gas fly 15 minutes per tankful. 


 


What do other clubs do to manage the time in the air discrepancy? 


 


I'd guess it's a non-issue or at most a minor one and would probably get a different answer if I asked the question of a group that isn't 80% electric. I was threatened yesterday about flying my gas plane longer that the other guy flies his electric.
