I fly at Osborne field most weekends. Home of the Aer-O-Nuts. There are also a number of people that fly there on Wednesday mornings.
The field has been in existence since the 50's. Bill Osborne got it going (hence the name) he did a lot of work with kids to get them into flying. Sadly he passed away a few years ago. It is maintained by the Alameda Parks and Recreation Department with help from those of us that fly there. It's a nice control line site without any noise restrictions and on the weekends we usually have anywhere from 10 to 20 people flying. Stunt, carrier, race, sport, combat, 1/2A, you name it. Come out and join us.
We are having a SWAP MEET on April 19th (Sunday). Anything model airplane. Sellers $5.00, buyers Free. Bring your own table and sell off your unwanted equipment or buy that special deal you might see there.
