the back OF Model Aviation which all members get at least most of the time. One
of the problem we have is many contests are not sanctioned soon enough to get
listed in MA. Another problem is the AMA listing of competition events "Radio
Control Aerobatics" No mention of the more commonly used term
"Pattern". And yes I also meet RC modelers both old and new that are
unaware that pattern is "still flown" or know absolutely nothing
about it. At one time new club members were exposed to many different
competition events fellow club members participated in. In my club I was the
only Pattern and Scale competitor for many years. Most have grown old and don't
compete any more or participate in fun or float fly activities only. The Pylon
and Soaring competitors have separated although some retain multiple club
membership.<o:p></o:p></span></font></span></p>

many years, and only at lower levels then. So I'm not that familiar

you in touch with a couple of guys who can. One of which is a fellow club
member<em><i> Bob Richards</i></em> 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.</span></font><font color=black><span style='color:black;

style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:black'>Mr. Larry Lewis;<br>
I am writing on behalf of my son Patrick Frost age 17. He attends High
School in <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City w:st="on">Greenville</st1:City>, <st1:State w:st="on">SC.</st1:State></st1:place>
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. <br>
I sincerely thank you for your time!<br>
