[NSRCA-dist7] 2017 Contest Schedule

[Steve Snarski]

Thanks guys. Appreciate the input.  I've been to the NSRCA site many times
but have yet to find specifics on contest site locations.  My primary
interest has been to answer the question "if I get serious, how far will I
need to drive to do this?". I'm obviously asking myself that question again.

I have been flying at the SVF (Sun Valley Flyers) site in North Phoenix.
Amazing field but 400 ft ceiling with Deer Valley airport nearby and 75% of
club being insane 3D pilots with very large planes (that always seem to be
in the air, everywhere!, including vertical takeoffs immediately in front
of me out of nowhere) it has been frustrating trying to concentrate and get
into the groove. And unfortunately Superstion/Apache-Junction is a haul for
me to do anything other than occasionally. May need to force it in more
often. Also looking at another "quieter" club to East (AMPS ... but still
400 ft ceiling).

I've been flying a Focus II I bought about 7 years ago when I first started
flying pattern in Raleigh, NC.  Flew with a guy (for about a year) who flew
Masters and was amazing (to me).  Have been hooked ever since.  Just back
into now for a year and need to PRACTICE!!! and hang around you guys more
often.  I'm trying to find the inspiration to work this into my crazy
schedule ... sounds familiar I'm sure.
