Have you ever try combining wine tasting & attending a pattern contest together?<br>
<br>
For those pattern pilots who reside in northern CA, I'm sure many of you have had the opportunity to fly at the beautiful NBRC club in <span class="x_hiddenSpellError">Napa</span> - a wide open airfield surrounded by vineyard. And for those who have not yet had the chances, you owe it to yourself to attend our <span class="x_hiddenSpellError">Napa</span> pattern contest.<br>
<br>
As most you may aware, Gary Stanton passed away two years ago. Gary had been an avid pattern competitor, secretary of NBRC & a long time friend of mine, who also had been graciously allowed me to use their facility to host a number of pattern contests in the past. Unfortunately, because of various reason, we have not had a contest there for sometime. However, thanks to Gary's son - Richard - we will be able to host a contest again this year, and I would like to dedicate this contest to his father Gary as the <span class="x_hiddenGrammarError">"</span>Gary Stanton Memorial Pattern Contest<span class="x_hiddenGrammarError">"</span>.<br>
<br>
The tentative date for the contest is 9/8 - 9/9. However, I do not want to take away a weekend of flying from the club member if we ended up with a low turnout. Therefore, please response either to the list or to me - riot3d@hotmail.com - so I can have an estimate on how many of you will be attending.<br>
<br>
As I'm aware, a number of D-7 & some out of town/ district pilots are currently attending the AMA pattern <span class="x_hiddenSpellError">Nats</span> until the end of the week. I will wait until 8/12 before making the final decision.<br>
<br>
Here are some information about the club. The runway have been recently resurfaced with new <span class="x_hiddenSpellError">petromat</span>, the length of the runway is 183x22 yards - 550' x 66'. It has a shaded pit area & electrical outlets.<br>
<br>
Since I can not post picture on this list due to file sizes, I've posted the same announcement with pictures on RCU pattern section & on Facebook.<br>
<br>
Should you have any question please do not hesitate to contact me.
