Due to Buder Park under flood waters we are cancelling the CL speed contest on May 20-21st

Time to get those Perky, Fox 35, F2A and other CL speed models out and come fly at our annual CL speed contest on May 20-21 in St Louis MO at Buder Park.

This is a great chance to get ready for the Nationals and Preview what is going to happen in Oct at the World Cup F2A speed contest that we are hosting.

This will take months to clean up!

If you look closely you can see the Speed fence just above the water's surface, the picture was taken on May 6, that is about 7 feet of water, mud and debris at the flying field.
