[NSRCA-discussion] Eglin AFB Pattern Contest, 27-28 June

[Ronald Van Putte]

I don’t know whether I have a copy of the 1968 American Aircraft Modeler, but it’s possible.  Why do you ask?  Was this the one with my article about the Ascender (R/C canard aircraft) I built?

I did see some dolphins surface in a bayou shortly after I got here and thought they were sharks.  When I mentioned it, the locals laughed themselves silly.

>> BTW, Rob didn’t mention it, but we fly from a north-south runway, but unlike many fields with north-south runways, we fly from both sides of the runway, so the sun is not an issue.  There are two sets of center and box poles on each side of the runway.
