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

[rcmaster199 at aol.com]

Scott, the club members in general are terrific folks. Very friendly and inquisitive about the kinds of things I do. Plus the club site is one of the better sites in Jersey.

The threat came from one of our own who thinks he has pull with club management, I'm sorry to say. I think I got whatever I needed from this thread and is all I'm going to say.

Thanks and regards
Matt

Matt,


Threatened?  Wow, I'd say the question is "Why am I still at this club providing help to others and supporting this club with my dues".

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.
