THANK YOU

     I would like to take this opportunity to thank everybody that participated and helped in the Fun Flies for the past two years that I have been Contest Coordinator.  It was a learning experience for me and without all the help I received I could not have done it.

     Andy Noll will be the new coordinator for next year.  I look forward to his expertise to continue with our fun flies and also extend my congratulations to him.

Thanks Again                                         Bob Nagle

  1.  You read nothing but transmitter and model manuals in the bathroom.

  2.  You have converted a mobile home to have room for all your airplanes with just space enough to sleep.

  3.  Your RC insurance costs more then your car's insurance.

  4.  You have something RC within a radius of 5 feet from you at all times.

     Well I guess we now have snow.!!!.  So will you be flying off of skis or floats?  Some will not have to do anything, and yet some will fly in the Dome, and others from the computer.

     Speaking of computers, how many of you have a flight simulator?  You can keep your skills sharp until spring.  I use mine on a daily basis.

     With my new job I will be putting in some overtime; but on the bright side, I will be making the meetings from now on.  Hopefully I can see more of your smiling faces at the meetings also.

     Hopefully, by the time you read this, the new roof will be on.  Thanks to Darren and the two Garys we will get this done.  This needs to be done.  I don't know how long the shingles have been up there.  (Editor - almost 20 years)

     On a note of safety.  How many of you use a fan blowing across your building surface?  When using CA or epoxy, the fumes may affect you.  I do get headaches if I don't use a fan.

That is all for this month.
Till next time  -  Fly safely                                AL
